How Good, Lord, to Be Here!

Author: Joseph A. Robinson, 1848-1933 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Topics: Temptation Lyrics: 1 How good, Lord, to be here! Your glory fills the night; your face and garments, like the sun, shine with unborrowed light. 2 How good, Lord, to be here, your beauty to behold where Moses and Elijah stand, your messengers of old. 3 Fulfiller of the past and hope of things to be, we hail your body glorified and our redemption see. 4 Before we taste of death, we see your kingdom come; we long to hold the vision bright and make this hill our home. 5 How good, Lord, to be here! Yet we may not remain; but since you bid us leave the mount, come with us to the plain. Used With Tune: POTSDAM

We'll Understand It Better By and By

Author: Charles A. Tindley Appears in 63 hymnals Topics: Temptation First Line: Trials dark on every hand Refrain First Line: By and by, when morning comes Lyrics: 1 Trials dark on ev'ry hand, and we cannot understand All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed Promised Land; But He'll guide us with His eye, and we'll follow till we die; We will understand it better by and by. Refrain: By and by, when the morning comes, When the saints of God are gathered home, We will tell the story how we've overcome; We will understand it better by and by. 2 Oft our cherished plans have failed, disappointments have prevailed, And we've wandered in the darkness, heavy-hearted and alone; But we're trusting in the Lord, and, according to his Word, We will understand it better by and by. (Refrain) 3 Temptations, hidden snares often take us unawares, And our hearts are made to bleed for some tho'tless word or deed, And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best, But we'll understand it better by and by. (Refrain) Used With Tune: [Trials dark on every hand]

How long shall evils tear my heart and troubles fill my day? 2 Look on my need, O Lord my God, who grants my every breath; give light that I may see your light, nor sleep the sleep of death. 3 Look on their threats and hear my cry, and answer when I call: or they will claim the victory who long to see me fall. 4 Lord, in your mercy is my trust; I shall be glad and free: then shall I sing with all my heart how you have dealt with me.

How Lovely Is Your Dwelling

Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Temptation And Trial Lyrics: 1 How lovely is your dwelling, O Lord of hosts, to me; my soul is longing, fainting, the courts of God to see. The beauty of your dwelling will bring me joy anew. My heart and flesh are crying, O living God, for you. 2 Beneath your care the sparrow finds place for peaceful rest; to keep her young in safety the swallow finds a nest. So, Lord, my King Almighty, your love will shelter me; beneath your wings of mercy my dwelling place will be. 3 Blest they who love and serve you, whose joy and strength you are. Forever they will praise you, your ways are in their heart. Though tried, their tears like showers shall fill the springs of peace, and all the way to Zion their strength shall still increase. Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: ST. EDITH Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.
