Judge me, O Lord; with upright Heart

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 26 Lyrics: 1. Judge me, O Lord; with upright Heart I've walk'd, and still abide: My Trust I've placed in the Lord, And will not turn aside. 2. Search me, O God, my Reins, and Heart, Try, and make thorow Proof. 3. I've set thy Grace before mine Eyes, And walked in thy Truth. 4. I have not with vain Persons sat; Nor with Dissemblers gone. 5. I hate the Crowds that practice Ill; The Wicked's Presence shun. 6. In Innocence I'll wash my Hands; And to thy Courts repair: 7. That I may all thy wondrous Works, With thankful Voice declare. 8. To visit, Lord, thy sacred House, Has been my great Delight; That holy Tabernacle, where Thy Glory shines so bright. 9. With Sinners let me not be join'd, Nor with the bloody Tribes; 10. Whose Hands in Mischief are employ'd, Their Right-Hand's full of Bribes. 11. For I will walk in Righteousness; In Mercy, me redeem. 12. My Foot stands right; among thy Saints, Thy Praise shall be my Theme.

Judge thou my Cause, O GOD!

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 26 Lyrics: 1 Judge thou my Cause, O GOD! For I have ever trod The Paths that righteous are and just; I shall not be disgraced, Since I have always placed, In thee alone my Hope and Trust 2 Search, prove each inward Part; Examine thou my Heart Which lies uncover'd to thy View: From Sin I have refrained, My Righteousness retained, And will the Ways of Truth pursue. 3 For still I keep thy Grace, O LORD, before my Face, And in thy Mercy take Delight; Thy Truth is my Direction, To bring me to Perfection, And keep me in the Path that's right. 4 The Idle or Profane, Could ne'er my Friendship gain; For in their Deeds I take not Part: Nor could the sly Deceiver, With all his Treach'ry, ever Win to his Ways my faithful Heart. 5 I hat the busy Crew, Who Mischief still pursue, And ever make distracted Times; Their Ways I ne'er approved, Their Converse never loved, But shun them as I shun their Crimes. Part II 6 My Hands in Innocence, I'll wash from all Offence; Make thou, Oh GOD, my Heart so pure, That to thy Altar going, No Spot or Blemish shewing, My Welcome may be found secure. 7 My Thanks I'll publish there, And to the World declare, Thy vast Renown and mighty Fame; My Heart with Rapture glowing, My Tongue for ever shwoing, The Honours due to thy great Name. 8 Thy Sanctuaries, LORD, To my Delight afford, My Soul in Peace reposing there; 'Tis there thou most excelleth; 'Tis ther thine Honour dwelleth; And thither I with Joy repari. 9 Let not the Sinners Doom, On me, thy Servant, come; Nor leave my Soul to be confin'd, With those, who Blood enjoying, The Harmless are destroying; To Blood and Murder still inclin'd. 10 Urg'd by a wicked spite, They seize another's Right, And make Oppression thus their Trade; They secret Bribes are taking, Their Oaths in private breaking, Or else by open Force invade. 11 But my Delight shall be, To walk in Falshood free; The Paths of Truth I will pursue: Then by thy Grace direct me, In virtuous Ways protect me; Thy former Mercies, LORD, renew! 12 My Foes assail in vain, I still my Ground maintain; Tho' arm'd with Rage they stand around: Among the Congregation Of Saints, I'll fix my Station, Thy Praises ever to resound.

To thee, O sov'reign father, I appeal

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 26 Lyrics: 1 To thee, O sov'reign father, I appeal; To thee the secrets of my soul reveal, My faithful soul, that, firm in innocence, Makes thee her surest hope, her strong defence, 2 O try thy servant, scrutinize his heart; Prove him, and judge according to desert, 3 With grateful eyes thy mercies all I view, With careful steps the road to truth pursue; 4 The fraudful tongue, that ruins with a lie, The idly vain, that love not thee, I fly; 5 The converse of ungodly men I hate, Nor 'mid the wicked e'er will fix my feat. 6 With hands unstain'd I'll at thy altar bow, There pay the adoration that I owe; 7 In thankful hymns I'll there employ my voice, And in the wonders of my God rejoice: 8 I love the temple, where thy name's ador'd; Much do I love thy hallow'd dome, O Lord. 9 Then suffer not my soul, to shades below, With bloody, with deceitful men, to go; 10 With men, whose hands in mischiefs are involv'd, Whose hearts for gain the blackest crimes resolv'd. 11 No; my sincerity be still my guard, With thy redemption my firm soul reward; 12 Firm that me Hands, I owe, my God, to thee: Thy name be prais'd thro' all eternity.
