For God Alone My Soul Awaits

  1. For God alone my soul awaits
    in quiet silence still;
    from him alone salvation comes.
    My rock of strength is he;
    my rescue comes from him alone;
    my fortress strong is he.
    In him alone I am secure;
    I’ll not be greatly moved.
  2. How long will you attack a man
    and batter him again,
    as if he were a leaning wall
    or like a tott’ring fence?
    They plot to bring him toppling down
    from his position high;
    they lie, give blessings with their mouths,
    but inwardly they curse.
  3. For God alone O wait, my soul,
    in quiet silence still;
    my hope in him is ever sure.
    My rock of strength is he;
    my rescue comes from him alone;
    my fortress strong is he.
    In him alone I am secure;
    I’ll not be greatly moved.
  4. From God alone comes saving grace;
    my glory rests in him.
    My mighty rock and refuge sure
    is God, in whom I trust.
    On him, O people, evermore,
    on him place all your trust;
    pour out your hearts before him now;
    God is a refuge sure.
  5. Those lowly born are but a breath,
    those high born but a dream;
    together weighed on balances,
    they’re lighter than a breath.
    So put no trust in robbery,
    nor hope in bribing schemes,
    and though your riches may increase,
    set not your heart on them.
  6. For God has truly spoken once;
    he twice to me made known:
    that strength and pow’r belong to God
    and unto him alone;
    and steadfast love and grace, O Lord,
    belong to you as well,
    for you will render to a man
    according to his work.
