In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter's snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer. 2 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, Thy wings shall my petition bear To Him, whose truth and faithfulness Engage the waiting soul to bless. And since He bids me seek His face, Believe His word and trust His grace, I'll cast on Him my every care, And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer. Amen.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 163 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Scripture: Psalm 27:6-10 Lyrics: 6 Soon as I heard my father say, "Ye children, seek my grace," My heart reply'd without delay, "I’ll seek my Father’s face." 7 Let not thy face be hid from me, Nor frown my soul away; God of my life, I fly to thee In a distressing day. 8 Should friends and kindred near and dear Leave me to want or die, My God would make my life his care, And all my need supply. 9 My fainting flesh had dy'd with grief, Had not my soul believ'd, To see thy grace provide relief; Nor was my hope deceiv'd. 10 Wait on the Lord, ye trembling saints, And keep your courage up; He’ll raise your spirit when it faints, And far exceed your hope.

Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light. 2 The day is done, its hours have run, and thou hast taken count of all, the scanty triumphs grace hath won, the broken vow, the frequent fall. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light. 3 Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways true absolution and release; and bless us, more than in past days, with purity and inward peace. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light. 4 Do more than pardon; give us joy, sweet fear and sober liberty, and simple hearts without alloy that only long to be like thee. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light. 5 For all we love, the poor, the sad, the sinful, unto thee we call; O let thy mercy make us glad: thou art our Jesus, and our All. Through life's long day and death's dark night, O gentle Jesus, be our Light. Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Evening Used With Tune: ST MATTHIAS

What heav'nly beauties in thee shine! What mercies from thee flow! 2 Lo! thou art all we need, To make us truly blest; Thy worshippers are all agreed, Thou art the sinner's rest. 3 When blows the stormy wind, The rage of man or hell, A hiding place in thee we find, Shelter'd in peace we dwell. 4 When Satan, sin, and law, Do fiercely all unite, Most fearfully on us to draw A dark, tempestuous night. 5 When thunders roar aloud Thro' the distermper'd sky; Like lightnings from the sulph'rous cloud, When dreadful curses fly: 6 Despairing, guilty fears, In fiery tempests roll, And when the second death appears To fright the trembling soul: 7 By faith in thee made bold, We smile when tempests fall; Thou art the man promis'd of old, To cover us from all.

Savior, when, in dust, to thee

Author: Grant Appears in 443 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 27:7 Lyrics: 1 Saviour, when, in dust, to thee Low we bow the adoring knee-- When, repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our streaming eyes-- Oh, by all thy pain and woe Suffered once for man below, Bending from thy throne on high, Hear us when to thee we cry. 2 By thine hour of ark despair; By thine agony of prayer; By the cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn; By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful sacrifice-- Jesus, look, with pitying eye; Listen to our humble cry. 3 By thy deep, expiring groan; By the sad, sepulchral stone; By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God-- Oh, from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, re-ascended Lord, Saviour, Prince, exalted high, Hear us when to thee we cry.

Shew me the Reason, O my God

Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 27:13 Lyrics: 1 Shew me the Reason, O my God, Why I afflicted am; Since thou hast wash'd me in thy Blood, And cover'd all my shame. 2 Why yet must rebel Nature live To fill my Heart with Pain? Why yet my Jesus must I grieve? Shall Nature ne'er be slain? 3 Ten thousand Tears, more num'rous Sighs, Flow from this Heart of mine, In ardent Pray'r, with piercing Cries, I seek Redress in vain. 4 Whilst, passing thro' baptismal Fire, My Spirit frets and pines, And, languishing with fierce Desire, Would know thy deep Designs. 5 What! must I lose my Friends and Fame, All that's to be desir'd? Have vile Contempt pour'd on my Name, Abhorr'd, but not admir'd? 6 What! must Temptations yet prevail, And Satan sift my Heart? Whilst inbred Lusts my Mind assail, And cause me grievous Smart? 7 Must Heaven, Earth, and Hell unite, Against me in this War? How shall I bear this dreadful Fight, Or keep from foul Despair? 8 Take up the Cross, thyself deny, (O most ungrateful Sound!) Alas! I burn, and sin, and die, And feel the Spirit's Wound. 9 Is there no Way to glorify Thy Death and honour'd Name, Except I to myself thus die, And swim thro' Floods of Shame? 10 What! be deny'd my Heart's Desire, My Expectations crost, Whilst all my Joys of Sense expire, My Reputation lost? 11 The Thought of this distracts my Heart, 'Tis worse than Death or Hell; The Torment, Pangs, and dreadful Smart, My Tongue can never tell. 12 Peace, O my Soul; this is the Path That leads to Rest divine: 'Tis this illustrates Jesu's Death, And makes his Goodness shine. 13 Now, with my Lord nail'd to his Cross, I feel the untold Pain; But, ah! how loath to suffer Loss Am I, tho' 'is my Gain! 14 O Lamb! 'tis thou dost exercise Me with this searching Flame, And, thro' thy Suff'rings, wilt baptize Me into all thy Name. 15 Since this I know, I check my Fears, And all I am resign; Fly from my Heart, ye anxious Cares, My Lamb, I'm wholly thine.

The invitation I embrace; I'll seek thy face; thy Spirit give! O let me see thy face, and live. 3 I'll wait, perhaps my Lord may come; If I turn back, hell is my doom; And begging in his way, I'll lie Till the dear Savior passes by. 4 I'll seek his face with cries and tears, With secret sighs and fervent pray'rs; And if not heard, I'll waiting sit, And perish at my Savior's feet. 5 But canst thou, Lord, see all my pain, And bid me seek thy face in vain? No! Jesus will not, can't deceive, The soul that seeks his face shall live. Topics: Holy Spirit Repentance
