• Serahkan pada Tuhan [KJ.417]

  1. Serahkan pada Tuhan seluruh jalanmu; kuatirmu semua ditanggungNya penuh. Sedangkan angin lalu dituntun tanganNya, Pun jalan di depanmu, Tuhan mengaturnya.	Mzm 37:5 1 Ptr 5:7
  2. Hendaklah kau percaya kepada Tuhanmu; niscaya kau bahagia, kerjamu pun teguh. Usahamu sendiri takkan menolongmu; Tuhanmu mengingini doamu yang tekun.	Mzm 1:3 Yoh 15:5
  3. Ya Bapa yang rahmani, Kau sungguh mengenal yang baik bagi kami di dalam tiap hal. Setia kaulakukan maksudMu yang tetap; Terwujudlah semua sempurna dan lengkap.	Rm 8:28
  4. Dan waktu setan maju berontak menyerang, tak usah ragu-ragu: Allahmu yang menang! Mustahil Allah mundur di dalam maksudNya; RencanaNya tak luntur, teguh selamanya.	Luk 10:17-18 Ef 4:27 1 Ptr 5:8-11 Why 12:9
  5. Beban kekuatiran lepaskan sajalah; segala kesedihan tinggalkan segera. Tak mampu kauatasi segala-galanya; Rajamu yang abadi menyelesaikannya.	Mat 6:25-34 Mat 11:28-30 1 Ptr 5:7 1 Tes 5:24
  6. Tentulah kadang-kadang tak nampak tanganNya, bagaikan t'lah terhadang terang anugerah, seolah-olah Tuhan tak lagi mendengar keluhan dan seruan di saat kau gentar.	Mzm 13:2-3 Mzm 28:1
  7. Tetap senantiasa percayalah teguh; tak mungkin kau binasa di pergumulanmu. Tuhanmu mengalihkan yang paling susah pun menjadi kebajikan di jalan hidupmu.	Mzm 13:6 1 Kor 10:13
  8. Alihkanlah, ya Tuhan, segala kemelut dan ajar kami pula berjuang bertekun. Setia Kau menjaga, membimbing umatMu Di dalam perjalanan menuju sorgaMu.

  2. Yang diperbuat Allahku, tak usah kuragukan dan jalan lurus kutempuh berkat pimpinan Tuhan. Anug'rah dan kasihNya pedoman di bahaya: Hidupku di tanganNya.	Mzm 23:3 Mzm 25:25
  3. Yang diperbuat Allahku dengan pengasuhanNya membuat jiwaku sembuh: tepat pengobatanNya. Mujarablah nasihatNya: aku percaya Dia, Tabibku yang setia.
  4. Yang diperbuat Allahku tak sungkan kuterima; tetap di marabaya pun Terang hidupku Dia. Di waktuNya ternyatalah betapa mengagumkan tujuan kasih Tuhan.
  5. Yang diperbuat Allahku, mengubah kepahitan, sehingga cawan duka pun mengandung kemanisan dan akhirnya bahagia mengisi lubuk hati; resah pun tiada lagi.
  6. Yang diperbuat Allahku pegangan abadi; bencana, maut, kemelut tak risau kuhadapi: terasalah rangkulanNya tempat hatiku aman, kuasaNya kuandalkan.

• [Psa 37:1] Fret Not Thyself

  Fret not thyself, nor envious be, When wicked workers thou shalt see, Who prosper in their way; For like the grass they perish soon, And, like the herb cut down at noon, They wither in a day. Trust in the Lord and still do well, Within the land securely dwell, Feed on His faithfulness; Delight thee also in the Lord, And to thy heart He will accord The good it would possess. Yea, to the Lord thy way is known; Confide in Him Who on the throne Abides in power divine; Thy righteousness He shall display; Resplendent as the light of day, It shall unclouded shine. Rest in the Lord and be thou still, With patience wait His holy will, Enduring to the end. Fret not though sinners’ gains increase; Forsake thy wrath, from anger cease; It will to evil tend. The evil-doer soon shall die, But those that on the Lord rely Shall all the land obtain. A little while and thou shalt see That wicked man cut off shall be, They shall be sought in vain. Yea, thou shalt soon consider well The place where they were wont to dwell, And it shall not be found; But saints shall all the land possess, And find delight and happiness Where fruits of peace abound. The vile may plot against the just Who in the Lord Jehovah trust, But God will scorn them all; The Lord their coming day shall see, When broken all their power shall be, And ruin on them fall.

• [Psa 37:1] Why Should I Vex My Soul?

  Why should I vex my soul, and fret To see the wicked rise? Or envy sinners waxing great By violence and lies? As flowery grass, cut down at noon, Before the evening fades, So shall their glories vanish soon In everlasting shades. Then let me make the Lord my trust, And practice all that’s good; So shall I dwell among the just, And He’ll provide me food. I to my God my ways commit, And cheerful wait His will; Thy hand, which guides my doubtful feet, Shall my desires fulfill. Mine innocence shalt Thou display, And make Thy judgments known, Fair as the light of dawning day, And glorious as the noon. The meek at last the earth possess, And are the heirs of Heav’n; True riches, with abundant peace, To humble souls are giv’n. Rest in the Lord, and keep His way, Nor let your anger rise, Though Providence should long delay To punish haughty vice. Let sinners join to break your peace, And plot, and rage, and foam; The Lord derides them, for He sees Their day of vengeance come. They have drawn out the threatening sword, Have bent the murderous bow, To slay the men that fear the Lord, And bring the righteous low. My God shall break their bows, and burn Their persecuting darts, Shall their own swords against them turn, And pain surprise their hearts.

• [Psa 37:3] Put Thou Thy Trust In God

  Put thou thy trust in God, In duty’s path go on; Walk in His strength with faith and hope, So shall thy work be done. Commit thy ways to Him, Thy works into His hands, And rest on His unchanging Word, Who Heav’n and earth commands. Though years on years roll on, His cov’nant shall endure; Though clouds and darkness hide His path, The promised grace is sure. Give to the winds Thy fears; Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears; God shall lift up thy head. Through waves, and clouds, and storms, His power will clear thy way; Wait thou His time, the darkest night Shall end in brightest day. Leave to His sovereign sway To choose and to command; So shalt thou, wond’ring, own His way, How wise, how strong His hand.

• [Psa 37:4] O Lord, I Will Delight In Thee

  O Lord, I will delight in Thee And on Thy care depend, To Thee in every trouble flee, My best, my only Friend. When all created streams are dried, Thy fullness is the same; May I with this be satisfied And glory in Thy Name. No good in creatures can be found But may be found in Thee; I must have all things and abound While God is God to me. O Lord, I cast my care on Thee, I triumph and adore; Henceforth my great concern shall be To love and please Thee more.

• [Psa 37:5] Commit Thou All Thy Griefs

  Commit thou all thy griefs And ways into His hands, To His sure truth and tender care, Who heaven and earth commands. Who points the clouds their course, Whom winds and seas obey, He shall direct thy wandering feet, He shall prepare thy way. Thou on the Lord rely, So safe shalt thou go on; Fix on His work thy steadfast eye So shall thy work be done. No profit canst thou gain By self consuming care; To Him commend thy cause, His ear Attends the softest prayer. Thy everlasting truth, Father, Thy ceaseless love, Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows What best for each will prove. Thou everywhere hast sway, And all things serve Thy might; Thy every act pure blessing is, Thy path unsullied light. When Thou arisest, Lord, What shall Thy work withstand? Whate’er Thy children want, Thou giv’st; And who shall stay Thy hand?

• [Psa 37:5] Commit Whatever Grieves Thee

  Commit whatever grieves thee Into the gracious hands Of Him Who never leaves thee, Who Heav’n and earth commands. Who points the clouds their courses, Whom winds and waves obey, He will direct thy footsteps And find for thee a way. On Him place Thy reliance If thou wouldst be secure; His work thou must consider If thine is to endure. By anxious sighs and grieving And self tormenting care God is not moved to giving; All must be gained by prayer. Thy truth and grace, O Father, Most surely surely see and know Both what is good and evil For mortal man below. According to Thy counsel Thou wilt Thy work pursue; And what Thy wisdom chooseth Thy might will always do. Thy hand is never shortened, All things must serve Thy might; Thine every act is blessing, Thy path is purest light. Thy work no man can hinder, Thy purpose none can stay, Since Thou to bless Thy children Wilt always find a way. Though all the powers of evil The will of God oppose, His purpose will not falter, His pleasure onward goes. Whate’er God’s will resolveth, Whatever He intends, Will always be accomplished True to His aims and ends. Then hope, my feeble spirit, And be thou undismayed; God helps in every trial And makes thee unafraid. Await His time with patience, Then shall thine eyes behold The sun of joy and gladness His brightest beams unfold. Arise, my soul, and banish Thy anguish and thy care. Away with thoughts that sadden And heart and mind ensnare! Thou art not lord and master Of thine own destiny; Enthroned in highest Heaven, God rules in equity. Leave all to His direction; In wisdom He doth reign, And in a way most wondrous His course He will maintain. Soon He, His promise keeping, With wonder-working skill Shall put away the sorrows That now thy spirit fill. A while His consolation He may to thee deny, And seem as though in trial He far from thee would fly; A while distress and anguish May compass thee around, Nor to thy supplication An answering voice be found. But if thou perseverest, Thou shalt deliverance find. Behold, all unexpected He will thy soul unbind And from the heavy burden Thy heart will soon set free; And thou wilt see the blessing He had in mind for thee. O faithful child of Heaven, How blessèd shalt thou be! With songs of glad thanksgiving A crown awaiteth thee. Into thy hand thy Maker Will give the victor’s palm, And thou to thy Deliverer Shalt sing a joyous psalm Give, Lord, this consummation To all our heart’s distress; Our hands, our feet, e’er strengthen, In death our spirits bless. Thy truth and thy protection Grant evermore, we pray, And in celestial glory Shall end our destined way.

• [Psa 37:7] Wait, And Murmur Not

  O troubled heart, there is a home Beyond the reach of toil and care; A home where changes never come: Who would not fain be resting there? Refrain O wait, meekly wait, and murmur not, O wait, meekly wait, and murmur not O wait, O wait, O wait, and murmur not. Yet when bowed down beneath the load By Heav’n allowed, thine earthly lot; Look up! thou’lt reach that blest abode; Wait, meekly wait, and murmur not. Refrain Toil on, nor deem, tho’ sore it be, One sigh unheard, one prayer forgot; The day of rest will dawn for thee; Wait, meekly wait, and murmur not. Refrain

• [Psa 37:9] Jehovah Is Our Strength

  Jehovah is our Strength, And He shall be our Song We shall o’ercome at length Although our foes be strong. In vain does Satan then oppose, For God is stronger than His foes. The Lord our Refuge is And ever will remain; Since He has made us His He will our cause maintain. In vain our enemies oppose, For God is stronger than His foes. The Lord our Shepherd is; He knows our every need, And since we now are His, His care our souls will feed. In vain do sin and death oppose, For God is stronger than His foes. Our God our Father is; Our names are on His heart; We ever will be His, He ne’er from us will part. In vain the mightiest powers oppose, For God is stronger than His foes.

• [Psa 37:16] Little That The Righteous Hold, A

  A little that the righteous hold Is better than the wealth untold Of many wicked men; Destroyed shall be their arm of pride, But they who in the Lord confide Shall be upholden then. He knows the days the perfect live To them a heritage will give Which ever shall abide; In evil times no shame they know, And in the days of famine’s woe They shall be satisfied. Although the wicked prospered seem, At last they vanish like a dream And perish in a day; Jehovah’s foes shall soon appear Like fields once fair, now brown and sere; Like smoke they fade away. They borrow oft and not pay back; But righteous men do nothing lack, And give with gracious hand; Those cursed by Him shall be destroyed, But such as have His grace enjoyed, They shall possess the land.

• [Psa 37:21] Good Man’s Steps Are Led Aright, The

  The good man’s steps are led aright, His way is pleasing in God’s sight, Established it shall stand; He shall not perish though he fall, The mighty Lord, who rules o’er all, Upholds him with His hand. Though I am old who young have been, No saint have I forsaken seen, Nor yet his home in need; He ever leads in gracious ways, His life true charity displays, His sons are blest indeed. Depart from evil, do thou well, And evermore securely dwell; Jehovah loves the right. His faithfulness His saints have proved, Forever they shall stand unmoved, But sinners God will smite. The righteous, through His fav’ring hand, Shall yet inherit all the land And dwell therein for aye; He talks of wisdom and of right, In God’s pure law is his delight, His steps go not astray. The wicked, watching for their prey, Desire the righteous man to slay, But God is on his side; He will not leave him in their hands Nor count him guilty when he stands In judgment to be tried. Wait on the Lord and keep His way; He will exalt thee, nor delay To give the land to thee; And when the wicked are cut off, The wicked who against thee scoff, Their judgment thou shalt see. The wicked in great power are seen, Like spreading tree with foliage green That grows in native ground. I looked again, they were no more; I sought the men so proud before, But they could not be found. Mark thou the upright day by day, Behold the perfect in his way, His journey ends in peace. Destroyed at once shall rebels be; Cut off from all posterity, Their very name shall cease. Salvation is from God alone, Whom as their covert saints have known When by sore troubles tried; The Lord, who helped in troubles past, Will save them to the very last, For they in Him abide.

• [Psa 37:23] Steps Of Those Whom He Approves, The

  The steps of those whom He approves Are ordered by the Lord; And though they fall, held by His hand, They yet shall be restored. I have not seen, though since my youth Full many years have fled, The saint forsaken, nor beheld His children begging bread. The children of the merciful Find blessings kept in store; Depart from evil and do good, And live forevermore. Wait on the Lord and keep His way, And then, by Him approved, Thy heritage shall still remain When sinners are removed. Mark well the perfect, upright man, As still his years increase; Behold his life, and thou shalt see His journey end in peace.
