Today during worship we sang # 4B from the new RPCNA Book of Psalms for Worship ("Answer When I Call"). The tune sounded somewhat familiar (Spencer Lane's Pentience). I did a search at The Cyberhymnal and found a hymn/psalm called "On the Good and Faith," which was apparently taken from the 1912 The Psalter (published by United Presbyterian Board of Publications).
That tune is hauntingly familiar to me, but I am pretty sure I have sung from the 1912 The Psalter, and I can't find it listed in any hymnal of which I'm aware. The words appear to be paraphrase of the same psalm from which we sang (Psalm 4):L
I am wondering if this appears in another hymnal. If so, which one? Any help/insight would be appreciated.

On the good and faithful God has set His love;
When they call He sends them blessings from above.
Stand in awe, and sin not, bid your heart be still;
Through the silent watches think upon His will.
Lay upon God’s altar good and loving deeds,
And in all things trust Him to supply your needs.
Anxious and despairing, many walk in night;
But to those that fear Him God will send His light.
In God’s love abiding, I have joy and peace
More than all the wicked, though their wealth increase.
In His care confiding, I will sweetly sleep.
For the Lord, my Savior, will in safety keep.
