Thou art my friend

R. Q. Hickman • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 86

Verse 1

By all whom Thou hast made Be praise and worship paid Through earth abroad; Thy Name be glorified, There is none great beside, Matchless Thy works abide, For Thou art God.

Verse 2

Help me Thy will to do, Thy truth I will pursue, Teach me to fear; Give me the single eye Thy Name to glorify, O Lord, my God Most High, With heart sincere.

Verse 3

How great Thy love appears That bade death's gloomy fears No more dismay; O God, to anger slow, Save me from every foe, Thy loving-kindness show, Thy truth display.

Verse 4

Show me Thy mercy true, Thy servant's strength renew, Deliverance send; To me Thy goodness show, Thy comfort, Lord bestow; Let those that hate me know Thou art my friend.
