Text · Psalm 16
Fellowship with God
When in the night I meditate
from The Psalter, 1912 · 8.6.8.6
1.When in the night I meditate
On mercies multiplied,
My grateful heart inspires my tongue
to bless the Lord, my Guide.
2.Forever in my thought the Lord
Before my face shall stand;
Secure, unmoved, I shall remain,
With Him at my right hand.
3.My inmost being thrills with joy
And gladness fills my breast;
Because on Him my trust is stayed,
My flesh in hope shall rest.
4.I know that I shall not be left
Forgotten in the grave,
And from corruption, Thou, O Lord,
Thy holy one wilt save.
5.The path of life Thou showest me;
Of joy a boundless store
Is ever found at Thy right hand,
and pleasures evermore.
