Thy Word, Eternal, Is Truth Evermore
Psalm 12
Dwight Armstrong

Help us, O God, For the merciful cease;
Faithfulness fails; Wicked men have their way.
They all speak lies; All with double heart speak;
God shall cut off those who speak boastfully.

Poor men are crushed, And the needy have sighed.
God will arise; Their deliverer shall be.
He'll set them safe; For His promise is pure;
Thy Word Eternal, is Truth evermore.

Men's words are false; They are empty and vain.
Each utters lies; To his neighbor he boasts.
They put their trust In their flattering speech.
Exalted are they among sons of men.
