How many, Lord, there be
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #III (1767) Hymnal Title: The Psalms of David Lyrics: 1 How many, Lord, there be,
that strive to trouble me,
My Peace of Mind destroying!
And as their Numbers grow
so does their Hatred too,
In my Afflictions joying.
They do my Soul upbraid,
thought GOD himself's my Aid,
Yet know they not to fear him;
Insultingly they cry,
let him on GOD rely,
The LORD now more will hear him.
3 But thou art my Defence,
my Hope and Confidence,
In thee alone are placed;
My glory thou shalt raise,
and to thy endless Praise,
My Foes shall be disgraced.
When like Distress was nigh,
my sad and mournful Cry,
Was to the LORD addressed;
And from his holy Hill,
he did my Wish fulfill,
And all my Wrongs redressed.
3 In thy Protection blest,
secure I take my Rest,
No kind of Danger fearing;
When Morning gilds the Skies,
refresh'd again I rise,
Sweet Sleep my Spirit cheering.
Not all my Foes combin'd,
disturb my Peace of Mind,
Their Rage shall ne'er confound me.
To thee I lift my Voice,
and in thy Strength rejoice,
Tho' thousands should surround me.
4 Arise, O GOD, arise!
Disperse those Enemies,
That are my Life pursuing;
Let thy Almighty Hand,
their utmost Pow'r withstand,
And guard me safe from Ruin.
To GOD, who is my Song,
Salvation doth belong;
And they shall be defended;
Who hat lift up on high,
their supplicating Cry,
And on the LORD depended.

How many, Lord, there be
Who hath his dwelling made, beneath th' Almighty's Shade
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XCI (1767) Hymnal Title: The Psalms of David Lyrics: 1 Who hath his Dwelling made, beneath th'Almighty's Shade,
Shall securely there abide:
Thus to my Soul I'll say, He is my Tow'r and Stay,
In thee, LORD, I will confide.
His tender Love and Care, Shall free thee from the Snare,
And the noisome Pestilence;
His shelt'ring Wings he'll spread, O'er thy unguarded Head,
And his Truth is thy Defence.
2 No Terrors of the Night, Shall thy firm courage fright,
Nor the Shafts that fly by Day;
Nor secret Plague that kills, Nor those infectious Ills,
Which in hottest Season slay:
Near thee ten Thousand die, And strew'd around thee lie,
Whilst thy Health untouch'd remains;
Thou shalt look on and see, Their sad Catastrophe,
Counting still the Sinners Gains.
3 Because with Confidence, On GOD, for thy Defence,
Thou most firmly didst rely;
Therefore no Sickness shall, Upon thy Dwelling fall,
Nor shall any Plague draw nigh:
For GOD, throughout thy Days, To guard thee in thy Ways,
To his Angels gives Commands;
And they, lest thou should'st meet, Rough Stones to wound thy Feet,
Shall convey thee in their Hands.
4 In Safety he shall go; Lions and Dragons too,
Underneath his Feet shall lie;
Because he honour'd me, Saith GOD, I'll set him free,
And will place his Throne on high:
Whatever Ill befalls, I'll answer when he calls,
And increase his Pow'r and Wealth;
And when in Calm Content, His happy Life is spent,
Him I'll crown with saving Health. Topics: Description of Confidence of Believers in Dangers; Description of Mortality Scripture: Psalm 91 Languages: English Tune Title: [Who hath his dwelling made, beneath th' Almighty's Shade]

Author: W. K. Hymnal: The Whole Booke of Psalmes #75c (1640) Hymnal Title: The Whole Booke of Psalmes First Line: I did in heart rejoyce Lyrics: 1 I did in heart rejoyce,
to heare the peoples voice,
In offering so willingly:
For let us up say they,
And in the Lords house pray,
Thus spake the folke full lovingly.
2 Our feet that wandred wide
Shall in thy gates abide,
3 O thou Jerusalem full faire:
Which art so seemely set
Much like a Citie neate
The like whereof is not elsewhere.
4 The Tribes with one accord,
The Tribes of God the Lord,
Are thither bent their way to take,
So God before did tell
That there his Israel
Their prayers should together make.
5 For there are thrones erect,
And that for this respect,
To set forth justice orderly:
Which thrones right to maintaine,
To Davids house pertaine,
His folk to judge accordingly.
6 To pray let us not cease
For Jerusalems peace,
Thy friends God prosper mightily.
7 Peace be thy wals about,
And prosper thee throughout
thy pallaces continually.
8 I wish thy prosperous state,
For my poore brethrens sake,
That comfort have by meanes of thee
9 Gods house doth me allure,
Thy wealth for to procure,
So much as alwaies as lies in me. Scripture: Psalm 122 Tune Title: [I did in heart rejoyce]

When Morning Gilds the Skies
Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #789 (1969) Meter: 6.6.7.6.6.7 D Hymnal Title: Worship Supplement Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies,
My heart awaking cries:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
When evening shadows fall,
This rings my curfew call:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
When mirth for music longs,
This is my song of songs:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
God's holy house of prayer
Has none that can compare
With "Jesus Christ be praised."
2 To him, my highest and best,
Sing I, when love-possessed:
May Jesus Christ be praisèd.
Whate'er my hands begin,
This blessing shall break in:
May Jesus Christ be praisèd.
No lovelier antiphon
In all high heaven is known
Than "Jesus Christ be praisèd."
There to the eternal Word
The eternal psalm is heard:
"O Jesus Christ be praisèd."
3 You nations of mankind,
In this your concord find:
May Jesus Christ be praisèd.
Let all the earth around
Ring joyous with the sound:
May Jesus Christ be praisèd.
Sing, suns and stars of space,
Sing, ye who see his face,
Sing, "Jesus Christ be praisèd."
God’s whole creation o'er,
For aye and evermore,
Shall Jesus Christ be praisèd. Topics: Times and Seasons Morning Tune Title: O SEIGNEUR
