As O'er The Past My Memory Strays

Author: Thomas F. Middleton, 1769-1832 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8250 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: As o’er the past my memory strays Lyrics: 1 As o’er the past my memory strays, Why heaves the secret sigh? ’Tis that I mourn departed days, Still unprepared to die. 2 The world and worldly things beloved, My anxious thoughts employed; And time unhallowed, unimproved, Presents a fearful void. 3 Yet, holy Father, wild despair Chase from my laboring breast; Thy grace it is which prompts the prayer, That grace can do the rest. 4 My life’s brief remnant all be Thine; And when Thy sure decree Bids me this fleeting breath resign, O speed my soul to Thee.
