Amen! so let it be: Life from the dead is in that word; 'Tis immortality! 2 Here, in the body pent, Absent from him I roam; 3 My Father's house on high, At times, to faith's far-seeing eye, 4 "Forever with the Lord!"

Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want; In pastures green: he leadeth me 2 My soul he doth restore again, 3 Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale, For thou art with me, and thy rod 4 My table thou hast furnished My head thou dost with oil anoint, 5 Goodness and mercy all my life And in God's house for evermore PSALM XLIII. C. M. 1 OH! send thy light forth, and thy truth; 2 Then will I to God's altar go, Yea, God, my God, thy name to praise, 3 Why art thou then cast down, my soul? And why with vexing thoughts art thou 4 Still trust in God; for him to praise He of my countenance is the health, 829 830 PSALM C. L. M. 1 ALL people that on earth do dwell, 2 Know that the Lord is God indeed; And for his sheep he doth us take. 4 For why? the Lord our God is good, His truth at all times firmly stood, PSALM CXVI. C. M. 1 I LOVE the Lord, because my voice I, while I live, will call on him, 2 Of death the cords and sorrows did The pains of hell took hold on me, 4 God merciful and righteous is, God saves the meek: I was brought low; He did me help afford. 5 I'll of salvation take the cup, On God's name will I call; I'll pay my vows now to the Lord, 6 Within the courts of God's own house; Within the midst of thee O city of Jerusalem, Praise to the Lord give ye. |
