Ye humble Souls that use to pray, Come, help my Lips to praise. 2 Sing to the Honour of his Name, How a poor Suff'rer cry'd, Nor was his Hope expos'd to Shame, Nor was his Suit deny'd. 3 When threat'ning Sorrows round me stood, And endless Fears arose, Like the loud Billows of a Flood, Redoubling all my Woes: 4 I told the Lord my sore Distress, With heavy Groans and Tears; He gave my sharpest Torments ease, And silenc'd all my Fears. Pause: 5 [O Sinners, come and taste his Love, Come, learn his pleasant Ways, And let your own Experience prove The Sweetness of his Grace. 6 He bids his Angels pitch their Tents Round where his Children dwell; What Ills their heav'nly Care prevents No earthly Tongue can tell.] [7 O love the Lord, ye Saints of his; His Eye regards the Just; How richly blest their Portion is Who make the Lord their Trust! 8 Young Lions, pinch'd with Hunger roar, And famish in the Wood; But GOD supplies his holy Poor With ev'ry needful Good.] Scripture: Psalm 34:1-10

Trust and confidence; or, looking beyond present appearances

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 175 hymnals Topics: Fears and doubts removed First Line: Away my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear! Let fear to me no more take place! My savior doth not yet appear, He hides the brightness of his face: But shall I therefore let him go, And basely to the tempter yield? No, in the strength of Jesus no! I never will give up the shield. 2 Altho' the vine its fruits deny, Altho' the olive yield no oil, The withering fig-tree droop and die, The field illude the tiller's toil; The empty stall no herd afford, And perish all the bleating race; Yet I will triumph in the Lord, The God of my salvation praise. 3 Away, each unbelieving fera, Let Fear to cheering hope give place; My Savior will at length appear, And shew the brightness of his face: Tho now my prospects all be crost, My blooming hopes cut off I see, Still will I in my Jesus trust, Whose boundless love can reach to me. 4 In hope, believing against hope, His promis'd mercy will I claim, His gracious word shall bear me up, To seek salvation in his name: Sure, my dear Savior, bring it nigh! My soul shall then outstrip the wind, On wings of love mount up on high, And leave the world and sin behind. Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18
