Merciful God, To Thee We Cry

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Merciful God, to Thee we cry, O think upon us, or we die The ever-living death! Lo! by a mighty tempest tossed, Our ship without Thine aid is lost, Lost in the gulf beneath. 2 The mariners are struck with fear, And shudder at destruction near, So high the billows swell; Ready to o’erwhelm our shattered state, Thy judgments fall with all their weight, To crush us into hell. 3 Ah! wherefore is this evil come? Show us, omniscient God, for whom Thy plagues our Church befall: Give, while we ask, a righteous lot, And let the guilty soul be caught, Who brings Thy curse on all. 4 With trembling awe we humbly pray, Now, now the secret cause display Of our calamity, Whose sins have brought Thy judgments down! Alas, my God, the cause I own, The lot is fallen on me! 5 I am the man, the Jonas I, For me the working waves run high, For me the curse takes place; I have increased the nation’s load, I have called down the wrath of God On all our helpless race. 6 With guilty unbelieving dread Long have I from His presence fled, And shunned the sight of Heaven; In vain the pardoning God pursued, I would not be by grace subdued, I would not be forgiven. 7 I know the tempest roars for me, Till I am cast into the sea, Its rage can never cease: Here then I to my doom submit, Do with me as Thy will sees fit, But give Thy people peace. 8 Save, Jesu, save the sinking ship, And lo! I plunge into the deep Of all Thy judgments here; I fall beneath Thy threatenings, Lord, But let my soul, at last restored, Before Thy face appear. 9 Beneath Thine anger’s present weight I sink, and only deprecate Thy sorer wrath to come: Give me at last in Thee a part, And now, in mercy, now avert The guilty nation’s doom. 10 O bid the angry waves subside, Into a calm the tempest chide By Thy supreme command: Thou in our broken ship remain, Till every soul the harbor gain, And reach the heavenly land.

Meeting In Glory

Author: W. B. Barger Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O! the grandeur and the glory Lyrics: 1 O! the grandeur and the glory, When on Heav’n’s eternal shore Ends our earth-life’s plaintive story, And its toils and cares are o’er. When the sighing and the sadness End in Heav’n’s endless bliss; And the soul drinks in the gladness Of a brighter world than this. 2 When the heartaches all are ended, And the tears are wiped away, And our happy songs are blended With the strains the angels play, We shall see the King of Heaven And receive His welcome word. Where all joy is kindly given, In the home of our dear Lord. 3 To those happy scenes we’re hastening, Tho’ we walk the vale of woe; Anguish deep our soul is chastening, But there is none where we go; There we’ll meet the loved departed, Who have only gone before; And ’mid fields and groves of glory, We’ll rejoice forevermore.
