Return Again O GodWords: Psalm 60: 1-5, 11-12 from The Scottish Psalter Music: Dwight Armstrong 1 O Lord, thou hast rejected us,
and scattered us abroad;
For thou hast been displeased with us;
return to us, O God.
2 For thou hast made the earth to shake;
within it breaches make:
Do thou thereof the breaches heal,
because the land doth shake.
3 O Lord, to Thy own chosen people
hast Thou hard times sent;
And thou hast made us drink the wine
of sore astonishment.
4 And yet a banner thou hast giv'n
to them who thee do fear;
That it may be displayed by them
for sake of truth appear.
5 That thy beloved people lord
may all delivered be,
Save with the pow'r of thy right hand,
an answer give to me.
11 Help us from trouble; for the help
is vain which man supplies.
12 Through God we'll do great acts; he shall
tread down our enemies.
