My Heart Is Sure, O God
Psalm 108; Psalter Hymnal 1959

1. My heart is sure, O God.
a grateful song I sing;
awake, O harp, in joyful strains
to praise my God and King.
2. Among the nations, Lord,
to You my song shall rise.
Your truth is great above the heav'ns,
Your mercies reach the skies.
3. Above the heav'ns, O God,
and over all the earth,
let folk exalt Your glorious Name
and tell Your matchless worth.
4. Stretch out Your mighty hand
in answer to our prayer,
and let Your own belovèd ones
Your great salvation share.
5. "All lands shall own My rule,"
the Holy God did say.
"My people shall My glory share;
the heathen shall obey."
6. The help of man is vain,
O be our Helper, Lord;
through You we'll win the victory
if You supply Your aid.

in faith present our prayers,
