Save me, O GOD, the swelling Floods

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P69a (1766) Topics: Christ his death and resurrection Lyrics: 1 "Save me, O GOD, the swelling Floods "Break in upon my Soul; "I sink, and Sorrows o'er my Head "Like mighty Waters roll. 2 "I cry till all my Voice be gone, "In Tears I waste the Day; "My GOD, behold my longing Eyes, "And shorten thy Delay. 3 "They hate my soul without a Cause, "And still their Number grows "More than the Hairs around my Head, "And mighty are my Foes. 4 "'Twas then I paid that dreadful Debt "That Men could never pay, "And gave those Honours to thy Law, "Which Sinners took away." 5 Thus in the great Messiah's Name The Royal Prophet mourns; Thus he awakes our Hearts to Grief, And gives us Joy by Turns. 6 "Now shall the Saints rejoice, and find "Salvation in my Name, "For I have borne their heavy Load "Of Sorrow, Pain and Shame. 7 "Grief like a Garment cloath'd me round, "And Sackcloth was my Dress, "While I procur'd for naked Souls "A Robe of Righteousness. 8 "Amongst my Brethren, and the Jews "I like a Stranger stood, "And bore their vile Reproach to bring "The Gentiles near to GOD. 9 "I came in sinful Mortals Stead "To do my Father's Will; "Yet when I cleans'd my Father's House, "They scandaliz'd my Zeal. 10 "My Fasting and my holy Groans "Were made the Drunkard's Song; "But GOD from his celestial Throne "Heard my complaining Tongue. 11 "He sav'd me from the dreadful Deep, "Nor let my Soul be drown'd; "He rais'd and fix'd my sinking Feet "On well establish'd Ground. 12 "'Twas in a most accepted Hour "My Pray'r arose on high, "And for my Sake my GOD shall hear "The dying Sinner's Cry."

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P69e (1766) Topics: Christ his death and resurrection Lyrics: 1 'Twas for my Sake, eternal GOD, Thy Son sustain'd that heavy Load Of base Reproach and sore Disgrace, And Shame defil'd his sacred Face. 2 The Jews, his Brethren and his Kin, Abus'd the Man that check'd their Sin: While he fulfill'd thy holy Laws That hate him, but without a Cause. 3 [My Father's House, said he, was made, A Place for Worship, not for Trade: Then scatt'ring all their Gold and Brass, He scourg'd the Merchants from the Place.] 4 [Zeal for the Temple of his GOD, Consum'd his Life, expos'd his Blood; Reproaches at thy Glory thrown He felt, and mourn'd 'em as his own.] 5 [His Friends forsook, his Followers fled, While Foes and Arms surround his Head; They curse him with a slad'rous Tongue, And the false Judge maintains the Wrong.] 6 His Life they load with hateful Lies, And charge his Lips with Blasphemies; They nail him to the shameful Tree; There hung the Man that dy'd for me. 7 [Wretches, with Hearts as hard as Stones, Insult his Piety and Groans; Gall was the Food they gave him there, And mock'd his Thirst with Vinegar.] 8 But GOD beheld; and from his Throne Marks out the Men that hate his Son; The Hand that rais'd him from the Dead, Shall pour the Vengeance on their Head. Scripture: Psalm 69:7-36

III. Lord, let thy blest Angelick Bands Convey my Soul into thy Hands, When now my Heart is breaking. The Body in its Tomb refine From all th' inherent Dross of Sin, Till Thou command'st its waking; Then raise me to that glorious Place, Where I may see Thee Face to Face, To sing with all thy Saints above The Wonders of Redeeming Love. O CHRSIT, my LORD, I'll here adore, And praise Thee there for evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: [Thee, Lord, I love with sacred Awe]

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GORTON

The God of love will sure indulge

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #914 (1886) Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 The God of love will sure indulge The flowing tear, the heaving sigh, When death inflicts his fatal wound, When tender friends and kindred die. 2 Yet not one anxious, murmuring thought Should with our morning passions blend, Nor would our bleeding hearts forget The almighty, ever-living Friend. 3 Beneath a numerous train of ills Our feeble flesh and heart may fail; Yet shall our hope in thee, our God, O'er every gloomy fear prevail. 4 Our Father, God! to thee we look, Our Rock, our Portion, and our Friend; And on thy covenant love and truth, Our sinking souls shall still depend.
