Call Jehovah thy salvation

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 214 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 91 Lyrics: Call Jehovah thy salvation, Rest beneath the Almighty's shade, In his secret habitation Dwell, and never be dismay'd: There no tumult shall alarm thee, Thou shalt dread no hidden snare, Guile nor violence can harm thee In eternal safeguard there. From the sword at noon-day wasting, From the noisome pestilence, In the depth of midnight blasting, God shall be thy sure defence; Fear not thou the deadly quiver, When a thousand feel the blow, Mercy shall thy soul deliver, Though ten thousand be laid low. Only with thine eyes the anguish Of the wicked thou shalt see, When by slow disease they languish, When they perish suddenly: 149 Thee, though winds and waves be swelling, God, thine hope, shall bear through all; Plague shall not come nigh thy dwelling, Thee no evil shall befall. He shall charge his angel legions, Watch and ward o'er thee to keep; Though thou walk through hostile regions, Though in desert wilds thou sleep: On the lion vainly roaring, On his young, thy foot shall tread, And, the dragon's den exploring, Thou shalt bruise the Serpent's head. Since, with pure and firm affection, Thou on God hast set thy love, With the wings of His protection He will shield thee from above: Thou shalt call on Him in trouble, He will hearken, He will save, Here for grief reward thee double, Crown with life beyond the grave.

Psalm 91 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 112 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 91:1-7 First Line: He that hath made his refuge God Lyrics: He that hath made his refuge God Shall find a most secure abode, Shall walk all day beneath his shade, And there at night shall rest his head. Then will I say, "My God, thy power Shall be my fortress and my tower; I, that am formed of feeble dust, Make thine almighty arm my trust." Thrice happy man! thy Maker's care Shall keep thee from the fowler's snare; Satan, the fowler, who betrays Unguarded souls a thousand ways. Just as a hen protects her brood From birds of prey that seek their blood, Under her feathers, so the Lord Makes his own arm his people's guard. If burning beams of noon conspire To dart a pestilential fire, God is their life; his wings are spread To shield them with a healthful shade. If vapors with malignant breath Rise thick, and scatter midnight death, Isr'el is safe; the poisoned air Grows pure, if Isr'el's God be there. What though a thousand at thy side, At thy right hand ten thousand died, Thy God his chosen people saves Amongst the dead, amidst the graves. So when he sent his angel down To make his wrath in Egypt known, And slew their sons, his careful eye Passed all the doors of Jacob by. But if the fire, or plague, or sword, Receive commission from the Lord To strike his saints among the rest, Their very pains and deaths are blest. The sword, the pestilence, or fire, Shall but fulfil their best desire; From sins and sorrows set them free, And bring thy children, Lord, to thee.

His faithfulness shall ever be a shield and buckler unto thee. 5 No nightly terrors shall alarm, no deadly shaft by day shall harm; nor pestilence that walks by night, nor plagues that waste in noonday light. 6 Because his angels he commands to bear thee safely in their hands, to guard thy ways, lest left alone, thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 "Because he set his love on Me, from danger I will set him free. Because to him My name is known, On high I'll set him as Mine own."

He that has God his Guardian made

Appears in 38 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 91 Lyrics: 1 He that has God his Guardian made, Shall, under the Almighty's Shade Secure and undisturb'd abide. 2 Thus to my Soul of Him I'll say, He is my Fortress and my Stay, My God in whom I will confide. 3 His tender Love and watchful Care Shall free thee from the Fowler's Snare, And from the noisome Pestilence: 4 He over thee his Wings shall spread, And cover thy unguarded Head; His Truth shall be thy strong Defence. 5 No Terrors that surprize by Night, Shall thy undaunted courage fright, Nor deadly Shafts that fly by Day; 6 Nor Plague, of unknown Rise, that kills In Darkness, nor infectious Ills That in the hottest Season slay. 7 A Thousand at thy side shall die, At thy right hand ten thousand lie, While thy firm Health untouch'd remains: 8 Thou only shalt look on and see The Wicked's sad Catastrophe, And count the sinner's mournful Gains. 9 Because (with well-plac'd Confidence) Thou mak'st the Lord thy sure Defence, And on the Highest do'st rely; 10 Therefore no Ill shall thee befal, Nor to thy healthful Dwelling shall Any infectious Plague draw nigh. 11 For he throughout thy happy Days, To keep thee safe in all thy Ways, Shall give his Angels strict Commands; 12 And they, lest thou should'st chance to meet With some rough Stone to wound thy Feet, Shall bear thee safely in their Hands. 13 Dragons and Asps that thirst for Blood, And Lions roaring for their Food, Beneath his conqu'ring Feet shall lie. 14 Because he lov'd and honour'd me, Therefore (says God) I'll set him free, And fix his glorious Throne on high. 15 He'll call; I'll answer when he calls, And rescue him when Ill befals; Increase his Honour and his Wealth: 16 And when, with undistrub'd Content, His long and happy Life is spent, His End I'll crown with saving Health.

Teach me to die that so I may Rise glorious at the awe-full Day. 4 Oh, may my soul in Thee repose, And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close, Sleep that shall me more vig'rous make To serve my God when I awake! 5 When in the night I sleepless lie, My soul with heav'nly thoughts supply; Let no ill dreams disturb my rest, No pow'rs of darkness me molest. 6 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host: Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick Henry Hedge Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 674 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 91:2 Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing. Our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe. His craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the right man on our side, the man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he. Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us. The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him. His rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure. One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth. The Spirit and the gifts are ours through him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also. The body they may kill; God's truth abideth still. His kingdom is forever.
