Psalm 34
O Sing My Soul, Your Maker's Praise
FINLAND 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.
ADORATION AND PRAISE
O sing my soul, your Maker's praise
In grateful hymns ascending;
Whose steadfast love has crowned your days
With heav'nly gifts unending.
I sought the Lord, He heard my cry;
His holy angels hover nigh
The tents of those who love Him.
The Lord is good to those who seek
His face in time of sorrow,
Providing comfort to the weak
And grace for each tomorrow.
Though grief may tarry for a night,
The morn shall break in joy and light
With blessings from His presence.
The Lord will turn His face in peace
When troubled souls draw near Him;
His loving kindness shall not cease
To those who trust and fear Him.
Our God will not forsake His own;
Eternal is His heav'nly throne;
His kingdom stands forever.
