Judge me, God of my salvation

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Judge me, God of my salvation, Plead my cause, for thee I trust: Hear my earnest supplication, Save me from my foes unjust. O my soul, why art thou grieving? What disquiets and dismays? Hope in God, his help receiving, I shall yet my Saviour praise. 2 For my Strength, my God, thou art: Why am I cast off by thee In the sorrow of my heart, While the foe oppresses me? Light and truth, my way attending, Send thou forth to be my guide, Till thy holy mount ascending, I within thy house abide. 3 At thy sacred altar bending, God, my God, my boundless joy, Harp and voice, in worship blending, For thy praise will I employ. O my soul, why art thou grieving? What disquiets and dismays? Hope in God; his help receiving, I shall yet my Saviour praise. Amen.

Author of "Judge Me, God of My Salvation" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
