O Israel, Put Your Hope Upon the Lord
mp3 | leadsheet
men: Is there ambition in my heart?
women: Search, gracious God, and see;
men: Or do I act a haughty part?
women: Lord, I appeal to thee.
-
Refrain:
O Israel, put your hope upon the Lord
From this time forth, forevermore (2x)
-
men: I charge my thoughts, be humble still,
women: And all my carriage mild,
men: Content, my Father, with thy will,
women: And quiet as a child.
-
Refrain:
O Israel, put your hope upon the Lord
From this time forth, forevermore (2x)
-
men: The patient soul, the lowly mind,
women: Shall have a large reward:
men: Let saints in sorrow lie resigned,
women: And trust a faithful Lord.
-
Refrain:
O Israel, put your hope upon the Lord
From this time forth, forevermore (2x)
