My Heart Rejoices in Thy Name (EN 798)

EN 798 My Heart Rejoices in Thy Name

Ps.31.1

Versi Version 1

1

My heart rejoices in Thy Name,

My God, my help, my trust;

Thou hast preserved my face from shame,

Mine honor from the dust.

2

“My life is spent with grief,” I cried,

“My years consumed in groans,

My strength decays, mine eyes are dried,

And sorrow wastes my bones.”

3

Among mine enemies my name

Was a mere proverb grown,

While to my neighbors I became

Forgotten and unknown.

4

Slander and fear on every side

Seized and beset me round

I to the throne of grace applied,

And speedy rescue found.

5

How great deliverance Thou hast wrought

Before the sons of men!

The lying lips to silence brought,

And made their boastings vain!

6

Thy children from the strife of tongues

Shall Thy pavilion hide;

Guard them from infamy and wrongs,

And crush the sons of pride.

7

Within Thy secret presence, Lord,

Let me forever dwell;

No fenced city, walled and barred,

Secures a saint so well.
