Courage, my soul! while God is near

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #471 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience Christian assurance and confidence in God Lyrics: 1 Courage, my soul! while God is near, What enemy hast thou to fear? How canst thou want a sure defence, Whose refuge is Omnipotence? 2 Tho' thickest dangers crowd my way, My God can chase my fears away: My steadfast heart on him relies, And all those dangers still defies. 3 Tho' billows after billows roll, To overwhelm my sinking soul; Firm as a rock my faith shall stand, Upheld by God's almighty hand. 4 In life, his presence is my aid; In death, 'twill guide me thro' the shade; Chase all my rising fears away, And turn my darkness into day.

Holy Father, Thou hast taught me

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #362 (1870) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Confidence in God Lyrics: 1 Holy Father, Thou hast taught me I should live to Thee alone; Year by year, Thy hand hath brought me On through dangers oft unknown. When I wander'd, Thou hast found me; When I doubted, sent me light; Still Thine arm has been around me, All my paths were in Thy sight. 2 In the world will foes assail me, Craftier, stronger far than I; And the strife may never fail me, Well I know, before I die. Therefore, Lord, I come, believing Thou canst give the power I need; Through the prayer of faith receiving Strength--the Spirit’s strength, indeed. 3 I would trust in Thy protecting, Wholly rest upon Thine arm; Follow wholly Thy directing, Thou, mine only guard from harm! Keep me from mine own undoing, Help me turn to Thee when tried; Still my footsteps, Father, viewing, Keep me ever at Thy side. Languages: English

And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; And still my soul would cleave to Thee, Though prostrate in the dust. Languages: English

Can this dark world of sin and woe One glimpse of happiness afford? 3 Eternal life Thy words impart; On these my fainting spirit lives; Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart Than all the round of nature gives. 4 Low at Thy feet my soul would lie; Here safety dwells, and peace divine; Still let me live beneath Thine eye, for life, eternal life, is Thine.
