My spirit on Thy care
Author: Henry F. Lyte Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 203 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31 Lyrics:
My spirit on Thy care,
Blest Savior, I recline;
Thou wilt not leave me to despair,
For Thou art love divine.
In Thee I place my trust,
On Thee I calmly rest;
I know Thee good, I know Thee just,
And count thy choice the best.
Whate'er events betide,
Thy will they all perform:
Safe in Thy breast my head I hide,
Nor fear the coming storm.
Let good or ill befall,
It must be good for me;
Secure in having Thee in all,
Of having all in Thee.
Amen.

Deliverance from Slander and Reproach
Appears in 38 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31:7-38 First Line: My heart rejoices in thy name Lyrics: 1 My heart rejoices in thy name,
My God, my heav'nly trust;
Thou hast preserv'd me free from shame,
Mine honour from the dust.
2 "My life is spent with grief," I cry'd,
"My years consum'd in groans,
"My strength decays, mine eyes are dry'd,
"And sorrow wastes my bones."
3 Among mine enemies my name
A proverb vain was grown,
While to my neighbors I become
Forgotten and unknown.
4 Slander and fear on ev'ry side
Seiz'd and beset me round,
I to the throne of grace apply'd,
And speedy rescue found.
Pause.
5 How great deliv'rance thou hast wrought
Before the sons of men!
The lying lips to silence brought,
And made their boasting vain!
6 Thy children from the strife of tongues
Shall thy pavilion hide,
Guard them from infamy and wrongs,
And crush the sons of pride.
7 Within thy sacred presence, Lord,
Let me for ever dwell;
No fenced city wall'd and barr'd,
Secures a saint so well.

Salmo 30: Padre, en Tus Manos/Psalm 31: Father, into Your Hands
Father, I know that all my life
Author: A. L. Waring Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 233 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31:15 Lyrics:
Father, I know that all my life
Is portioned out for me,
And the changes that are sure to come,
I do not fear to see;
But I ask Thee for a present mind
Intent on pleasing Thee.
I ask Thee for a thoughtful love,
Through constant watching wise,
To meet the glad with joyful smiles,
And to wipe the weeping eyes;
And a heart at leisure from itself,
To soothe and sympathize.
I would not have the restless will
That hurries to and fro,
Seeking for some great thing to do,
Or secret thing to know;
I would be treated as a child,
And guided where I go.
Wherever in the world I am,
In whatsoe'er estate,
I have a fellowship with hearts
To keep and cultivate;
And a work of lowly love to do
For the Lord on whom I wait.
So I ask Thee for the daily strength,
To none that ask denied,
And a mind to blend with outward life
While keeping at Thy side;
Content to fill a little space,
If Thou be glorified.
And if some things I do not ask,
In my cup of blessing be,
I would have my spirit filled the more
With grateful love to Thee —
More careful — not to serve Thee much,
But to please Thee perfectly.
There are briers besetting every path,
That call for patient care;
There is a cross in every lot,
And an earnest need for prayer;
But a lowly heart that leans on Thee
Is happy anywhere.
In a service which Thy will appoints,
There are no bonds for me;
For my inmost heart is taught “the truth”
That makes Thy children “free;”
And a life of self–renouncing love,
Is a life of liberty.
Father, I know that all my life
Psalm 31 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31:13-19 First Line: Unto thine hand, O God of truth Lyrics:
Unto thine hand, O God of truth,
My spirit I commit;
Thou hast redeemed my soul from death,
And saved me from the pit.
The passions of my hope and fear
Maintained a doubtful strife,
While sorrow, pain, and sin conspired
To take away my life.
"My times are in thine hand," I cried,
"Though I draw near the dust;
Thou art the refuge where I hide,
The God in whom I trust.
O make thy reconciled face
Upon thy servant shine,
And save me for thy mercy's sake,
For I'm entirely thine.
['Twas in my haste my spirit said,
"I must despair and die,
I am cut off before thine eyes;
But thou hast heard my cry.]
Thy goodness how divinely free!
How wondrous is thy grace
To those that fear thy majesty,
And trust thy promises!
O love the Lord, all ye his saints,
And sing his praises loud;
He'll bend his ear to your complaints,
And recompense the proud.

Psalm (30) 31
The Saints happy in being entirely at the Disposal of his God—My Times are in thy Hand
Author: Ryland, junior Appears in 164 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31:15 First Line: Sovereign ruler of the skies Lyrics: 1 Sovereign ruler of the skies,
Ever gracious ever wise!
All my times are in thy hand,
All events at thy command.
2 His decree, that form'd the earth,
Fix'd my first and second birth;
Parents, native-place, and time,
All appointed were by him.
3 He that form'd me in the womb,
He shall guide me to the tomb:
All my times shall ever be
Order'd by his wise decree.
4 Times of sickness, times of health;
Times of penury and wealth:
Times of trial and of grief;
Times of triumph and relief.
5 Times the tempter's power to prove;
Times to taste a Savior's love:
All must come and last and end,
As shall please my heavenly friend.
6 Plagues and deaths around me fly;
Till he bids, I cannot die:
Not a single shaft can hit,
Till the God of love sees fit.
7 O thou gracious, wise and just,
In thy hands my life I trust;
Have I somewhat dearer still?
I resign it to thy will.
8 May I always own thy hand—
Still to thee surrender stand:
Know that thou art God alone,
I and mine are all thy own.
9 Thee at all times will I bless;
Having thee, I all possess:
How can I bereaved be,
Since I cannot part with thee.
