Today’s song was originally by Isaac Watts based of Psalm 120. Cardiphonia and Bruce Benedict have done a lovely retune of this hymn below. Enjoy!
O God of love, forever blest,
pity my suffering state.
When will you set my soul at rest
from lips that love deceit?
Refrain:
Too long my soul (has made its home)
with those who lift the sword.
I am for peace; (but when I speak),
they make for war.
I cried in trouble to the Lord,
and he has answered me.
From lying lips and crafty tongue,
O Lord, my soul set free. [Refrain]
