Charity to the Poor; or Pity to the Afflicted

Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31:1-3 First Line: Blest is the man, whose breast can move Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man, whose breast can move, And melt with pity to the poor, Whose soul, by sympathizing love, Feels what his fellow saints endure. 2 His heart contrives for their relief More good than his own hands can do; He in the time of general grief Shall find the Lord has mercy too. 3 His soul shall live secure on earth, With secret blessings on his head, When drought, and pestilence, and dearth, Around him multiply their dead. 4 Or if he languish on his couch God will pronounce his sins forgiven, Will save him with a healing touch, Or take his willing soul to heaven.

Defend me, Lord, from Shame

Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31 Lyrics: 1 Defend me, Lord, from Shame, for still I trust in Thee: As Just and Righteous is thy Name, from Danger set me free. 2 Bow down thy gracious Ear, and speedy Succour send: Do Thou my stedfast Rock appear, to shelter and defend. 3 Since Thou, when Foes oppress, my Rock and Fortress art, To guide me forth from this Distress, thy wonted Help impart. 4 Release me from the Snare which they have closely laid; Since I, O God my Strength repair to Thee alone for Aid. 5 To Thee, the God of Truth, my Life, and all that's mine (For Thou preserv'dst me from my Youth,) I willingly resign. 6 All vain Designs I hate, of those that trust in Lies: And still my soul, in ev'ry State, to God for Succour flies. Part II 7 Those Mercies Thou hast shown, I'll chearfully express; For Thou hast seen my Streights, and know my Soul in deep Distress. 8 When Keilah's treach'rous Race did all my Strength inclose, Thou gav'st my Feet a larger Space, to shun my watchful Foes. 9 Thy Mercy, Lord, display, and hear my just Complaint; For both my Soul and flesh decay, with Grief and Hunger faint. 10 Sad Thoughts my Life oppress; my Years are spent in Groans; My Sins have made my Strength decrease, and ev'n consum'd my Bones. 11 My Foes my Suff'rings mock'd; my Neighbours did upbraid; My Friends, at Sight of me, were shock'd, and fled, as Men dismay'd. 12 Forsook by all am I, as dead, and out of Mind; And like a shatter'd Vessel lie, whose Parts can ne'er be join'd. 13 Yet sland'rous Words they speak, and seem my Pow'r to dread; Whilst they together counsel take my guiltless Blood to shed. 14 But still my stedfast Trust, I on thy Help repose: That Thou, my God, art good and just, my Soul with Comfort knows. Part III 15 Whate'er Events betide, thy Wisdom times them all: Then, Lord, thy Servant safely hide from those that seek his Fall. 16 The Brightness of thy Face, to me, O Lord, disclose; And, as thy mercies still increase, preserve me from my Foes. 17 Me from Dishonour save, who still have call'd on Thee; Let That, and Silence in the Grave, the Sinner's Portion be. 18 Do Thou their Tongues restrain; whose Breath in Lies is spent; Who false Reports, with proud Disdain, against the Righteous vent. 19 How great thy Mercies are to such as fear thy Name; Which Thou, for those that trust thy Care, dost to the World proclaim! 29 Thou keep'st them in thy sight, from proud Oppressors free: From Tongues that do in Strife delight, they are preserv'd by Thee. 21 With Glory and Renown God's Name be ever bless'd; Whose Love is Keilab's well-fenc'd Town was wond'rously express'd! 22 I said, in hasty Flight, "I'm banish'd from thine eyes:" Yet still Thou keptst me in thy Sight, and heardst my earnest Cries. 23 O! all ye Saints, the Lord with eager Love pursue; Who to the Just will Help afford, and give the Proud their Due. 24 Ye that on God rely, courageously proceed; For He will still your Hearts supply with Strength, in Time of Need.

Psalm 31: In thee, O Lord, I put my trust

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31 First Line: In thee, O Lord, I put my trust Lyrics: 1In thee, O Lord, I put my trust, sham’d let me never be; According to thy righteousness do thou deliver me. 2Bow down thine ear to me, with speed send me deliverance: To save me, my strong rock be thou, and my house of defence. 3Because thou art my rock, and thee I for my fortress take; Therefore do thou me lead and guide, ev’n for thine own name’s sake. 4And sith thou art my strength, therefore pull me out of the net, Which they in subtilty for me so privily have set. 5Into thine hands I do commit my sp’rit: for thou art he, O thou, Jehovah, God of truth, that hast redeemed me. 6Those that do lying vanities regard, I have abhorr’d: But as for me, my confidence is fixed on the Lord. 7I’ll in thy mercy gladly joy: for thou my miseries Consider’d hast; thou hast my soul known in adversities: 8And thou hast not inclosed me within the en’my’s hand; And by thee have my feet been made in a large room to stand. 9O Lord, upon me mercy have, for trouble is on me: Mine eye, my belly, and my soul, with grief consumed be. 10Because my life with grief is spent, my years with sighs and groans: My strength doth fail; and for my sin consumed are my bones. 11I was a scorn to all my foes, and to my friends a fear; And specially reproach’d of those that were my neighbours near: When they me saw they from me fled. 12Ev’n so I am forgot, As men are out of mind when dead: I’m like a broken pot. 13For slanders I of many heard; fear compass’d me, while they Against me did consult, and plot to take my life away. 14But as for me, O Lord, my trust upon thee I did lay; And I to thee, Thou art my God, did confidently say. 15My times are wholly in thine hand: do thou deliver me From their hands that mine enemies and persecutors be. 16Thy countenance to shine do thou upon thy servant make: Unto me give salvation, for thy great mercies’ sake. 17Let me not be asham’d, O Lord, for on thee call’d I have: Let wicked men be sham’d, let them be silent in the grave. 18To silence put the lying lips, that grievous things do say, And hard reports, in pride and scorn, on righteous men do lay. 19How great’s the goodness thou for them that fear thee keep’st in store, And wrought’st for them that trust in thee the sons of men before! 20In secret of thy presence thou shalt hide them from man’s pride: From strife of tongues thou closely shalt, as in a tent, them hide. 21All praise and thanks be to the Lord; for he hath magnify’d His wondrous love to me within a city fortify’d. 22For from thine eyes cut off I am, I in my haste had said; My voice yet heard’st thou, when to thee with cries my moan I made. 23O love the Lord, all ye his saints; because the Lord doth guard The faithful, and he plenteously proud doers doth reward. 24Be of good courage, and he strength unto your heart shall send, All ye whose hope and confidence doth on the Lord depend.
