Lord, Thou Wilt Hear Me When I Pray

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4068 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Lord, Thou wilt hear me when I pray, I am forever Thine; I fear before Thee all the day, Nor would I dare to sin. 2. And while I rest my weary head, From cares and business free, ’Tis sweet conversing on my bed, With my own heart and Thee. 3. I pay this evening sacrifice: And when my work is done, Great God, my faith and hope relies Upon Thy grace alone. 4. Thus, with my thoughts composed to peace, I’ll give mine eyes to sleep; Thy hand in safety keeps my days, And will my slumbers keep. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

Mercy and truth, that long were missed, Now joyfully are met; Sweet peace and righteousness have kissed, And hand in hand are set. 3. Rise, God, judge Thou the earth in might, This wicked earth redress; For Thou art He who shalt by right The nations all possess. 4. The nations all whom Thou hast made Shall come, and all shall frame To bow them low before Thee, Lord! And glorify Thy name! 5. Truth from the earth, like to a flower, Shall bud and blossom then, And justice, from her heavenly bower, Look down on mortal men. 6. Thee will I praise, O Lord, my God! Thee honor and adore With my whole heart; and blaze abroad Thy name forevermore! Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

O saints of old, not yours alone The search for God shall be; We take the glory for our own; Lord, we are seeking Thee. 2. Not only when ascends the song And soundeth sweet the word; Not only with the Sabbath throng, Our souls would seek the Lord. 3. We would not to our daily task Without our God repair, But in the world His presence ask, And seek His glory there. 4. O everywhere, O every day, The grace is still outpoured; We work, we watch, we strive, we pray, Behold Thy seekers, Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

Thrice Joyful Night

Author: Jean Mauburn; Edwin C. Leaton-Blenkinsopp Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10695 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Thrice joyful night, with blessings dight Lyrics: 1 Thrice joyful night, with blessings dight, Which saw the Savior’s birth; From Heaven high my God is nigh To calm the woes of earth. 2 When Eve’s sad fall had, like a pall, Enshrouded all our race, As man He came, for man to claim A light for earth’s dark face. 3 Th’eternal Light, the Godhead bright, In swathing bands they fold; The King of all in lowly stall The ox and ass behold. 4 Th’almighty Word whom hosts adored A silent Infant lay; The sun grows old, its beam falls cold; What mean these marvels?

When We Are Raised From Deep Distress

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12598 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When we are raised from deep distress, Our God deserves a song; We take the pattern of our praise From Hezekiah’s tongue. 2 The gates of the devouring grave Are opened wide in vain, If He that holds the keys of death Commands them fast again. 3 Pains of the flesh are wont t’abuse Our minds with slavish fears: Our days are past, and we shall lose The remnant of our years. 4 We chatter with a swallow’s voice, Or like a dove we mourn, With bitterness instead of joys, Afflicted and forlorn. 5 Jehovah speaks the healing word, And no disease withstands; See fevers, plagues obey the Lord, And fly at His commands. 6 If half the strings of life should break, He can our frame restore; He casts our sins behind His back, And they are found no more.

Father Of Mercies, Send Thy Grace

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13656 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, send Thy grace All powerful from above To form in our obedient souls The image of Thy love. 2 O may our sympathizing breasts That generous pleasure know Kindly to share in others’ joy, And weep for others’ woe! 3 When the most helpless sons of grief In low distress are laid, Soft be our hearts their pains to feel, And swift our hands to aid. 4 So Jesus looked on dying men, When throned above the skies, And ’midst th’embraces of His God He felt compassion rise. On wings of love the Savior flew To raise us from the ground, And made the richest of His blood A balm for every wound. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

Although Jehovah Changes Not

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15856 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Although Jehovah changes not, Nor e’er withdraws His love; Yet if His precepts are forgot, He will His saints reprove. 2 If they His holy statutes break, He then assumes the rod; And on their sins will vengeance take, For He’s a righteous God. 3 But His compassions never cease His promises are sure; His mercy and His faithfulness, From age to age endure.

Unstable Souls, The Slaves Of Sense

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16244 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Unstable souls, the slaves of sense, The tempter oft beguiles, Approaching with some fair pretense, He veils his artful wiles. 2 Sometimes he tempts us to presume, And then to deep despair; Tells us, in Christ there is no room, No refuge for us there. 3 To youth he says, "’Tis yet too soon, A dying prayer will do"; To hoary age, "The time is gone, To form the life anew." 4 When carnal objects we pursue, He strews them in our way, Enticing baits presents to view, And makes us soon his prey. 5 Now he assumes a form divine, The simple to allure, Extols their duties with design, Their ruin to secure. 6 A God all mercy or all wrath, He’ll place before our view, Severe to mark the least offense, Or careless what we do. 7 Great God, his various schemes confound, Bind up this haughty foe; Then shall our tongues Thy praise resound, Our hearts with joy o’erflow.
