PSALM 25 PART 1
v.1-11
S. M.
Waiting for pardon and direction.
I Lift my soul to God, My trust is in his name: Let not my foes that seek my blood Still triumph in my shame. | Sin, and the powers of hell, Persuade me to despair: Lord, make me know thy cov'nant well, That I may 'scape the snare. | From the first dawning light Till the dark ev'ning rise, For thy salvation, Lord, I wait With ever-longing eyes. | Remember all thy grace, And lead me in thy truth; Forgive the sins of riper days, And follies of my youth. | The Lord is just and kind, The meek shall learn his ways, And every humble sinner find The methods of his grace. | For his own goodness' sake He saves my soul from shame: He pardons, though my guilt be great, Through my Redeemer's name. | |
