Great God, indulge my humble claim

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #220 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Great God, indulge my humble claim: Be thou my hope, my joy, my rest! The glories, that compose thy name, Stand all engag'd to make me blest. 2 Thou great and good, thou just and wise, Thou art my Father and my God! And I am thine by sacred ties, Thy child and servant, bought with blood. 3 With heart, and eyes, and lifted hands, For thee I long, for thee I look, As travelers in thirsty lands, Pant for the cooling water-brook. 4 Ev'n life itself, without thy love, No lasting pleasure can afford: Yea, 'twould a tiresome burden prove, If I were banish'd from thee, Lord. 5 I'll lift my hands, I'll raise my voice, While I have breath to pray or praise. This work shall make my heart rejoice, Throughout the remnant of my days. Topics: Supplication for the Divine Favour and Assistance Languages: English
