PSALM 85:8-13
METER: 77 77 D
SUGGESTED TUNES: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR or MESSIAH
This is the same meter as such hymns as "Come, Ye Thankful People, Come" and "Take My Life, and Let It Be"
1. Let me hear what God will say,
For he speaks peace to his own,
To the ones he calls his saints,
Those who turn their hearts to him.
Let them not be fools again.
God will save those who fear him.
Yes, salvation is at hand,
And God's glory's in our land.
2. Love and faithfulness will meet;
Righteousness and peace embrace.
Faithfulness springs from the ground;
Justice will look down from heav'n.
God will give us what is good,
Bounteous harvests we'll receive.
Righteousness before him goes
To prepare a path for him.
