MHRPC: Psalm 44D

Psalm 44D: Psalm 44:1-8

Robinson, 11.11.11.11. [E flat]

1. ¹ O God, we have heard and our fathers have told
        What wonders You did in the great days of old.
² Where nations were crushed and cast out by Your hand;
        You planted our fathers to dwell in the land.

2. ³ They gained not the land by the edge of their sword;
        Their own arm to them could no safety afford,
But Your right hand, Your arm, the light of Your face.
        You showed them Your favor, Your wonderful grace.

3. ⁴ O God, You alone are forever my King;
        Command, and for Jacob deliverance bring.
⁵ Through You we will surely put down all our foes,
        Through Your name will tramble on them that oppose.

4. ⁶ No trust will I place in my sword or my bow,
        ⁷ For You are our Savior from hater and foe.
⁸ In God we will boast Who has put them to shame,
        All day and forever give thanks to Your name.
