The Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation.

ALL Jehovah thy Salvation,

mf CALL

Rest beneath the Almighty's shade,

In His secret habitation

Dwell, nor ever be dismayed.

mf 2 There no tumult can alarm thee,
Thou shalt dread no hidden snare;
Guile nor violence can harm thee
In eternal safeguard there.

cr 3 Thee, though winds and waves are swelling,
God, thy hope, shall bear through all;
Plague shall not come nigh thy dwelling,
Thee no evil shall befall.

mp 4 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.

mf 5 Since with firm and pure affection
Thou on God hast set thy love,

cr

With the wings of His protection

He shall shield thee from above. Amen.

JAMES MONTGOMERY.

Abounding in hope through the power of the Holy Ghost.

ISE, my soul, thy God directs thee,
Stranger hands no more impede;
Pass thou on, His strength protects thee,
Strength that has the captive freed.

mf 2 Light divine surrounds thy going,
God Himself shall mark the way;
Secret blessings, richly flowing,
Lead to everlasting day.

ст

mp3 Though thy way be long and dreary,
Eagle strength He'll still renew;
Garments fresh and feet unweary
Tell how God will bear thee through,

mf 4 Till to Canaan's long-loved dwelling
Love divine thy foot shall bring-
There, with shouts of triumph swelling,
Zion's songs in rest to sing. Amen.

He will be our guide even unto death.

UIDE me, O Thou great Jehovah!

Hold me with Thy powerful hand:
Bread of heaven,

Feed me now and evermore.

Whence the healing streams do flow; ff Let the fiery, cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey through:
Strong Deliverer,

Be Thou still my strength and shield.
When I tread the verge of Jordan

Bid my anxious fears subside; Death of death, and hell's destruction, Land me safe on Canaan's side:

Songs of praises

I will ever give to Thee. Amen.
