Psalm 19: Thy servant if I am indeed

Thy servant if I am indeed,
Redeem'd by blood Divine,
From sin, the world, and Satan freed,
Preserve me ever Thine:
From wilful, known, presumptuous sins.
Thou only canst defend,
Exalted to be IsraeVs Prince,
And Saviour to the end.

My treacherous heart will turn again
To its own wickedness.
Unless Thou constantly restrain,
And rule it by Thy grace:
But if Thou keep me day and night,
I shall transgress no more,
But blameless walk as in Thy sight,
Or at Thy feet adore.
832. 0 go not from me, for trouble is hard at hand. — xxii. 1 1. -f-
Trouble and sin are hard at hand,
Alas, too intimately near!
I cannot in temptation stand.
Unless my God is always here.
Unless my Saviour stands between;
Parted one moment from Thy power
I fall into my bosom-sin,
And left by Thee, should rise no more.
iT,1. The Lord my shepherd. — xxiii. r.
My Shepherd found His wandering sheep.
Even to the brink of Tophet driven:
He now among His flock shall keep,
And guide me to His fold in heaven.
