Complaint in Sickness; or Diseases healed

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #10 (1740) Topics: Devotions on a sick Bed First Line: In Anger, Lord, rebuke me not Lyrics: 1 In Anger, Lord, rebuke me not, Withdraw the dreadful Storm; Nor let thy Fury grow so hot Against a feeble Worm. 2 My Soul's bow'd down with heavy Cares, My Flesh with Pain opprest: My Couch is Witness to my Tears, My tears forbid my Rest. 3 Sorrow and Pain wear out my Days; I waste the Night with Cries, Counting the Minutes as they pass, 'Till the slow Morning rise. 4 Shall I be still tormented more? Mine Eye consum'd with Grief? How long, my God, how long, before Thine Hand affords Relief? 5 He hears when Dust and Ashes speak, He pities all our Groans; He saves us for his Mercy's Sake, And heals our broken Bones. 6 The Virtue of his sov'reign Word Restores our fainting Breath; For silent Graves praise not the Lord, Nor is he known in Death. Scripture: Psalm 6

Why doth the Lord stand off so far?

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P10 (1766) Topics: Devotions on a sick Bed Lyrics: 1 Why doth the Lord stand off so far? And why conceal his Face, When great Calamities appear, And Times of deep Distress? 2 Lord, shall the Wicked still deride Thy Justice and thy Power? Shall they advance their Heads in Pride, And still thy Saints devour? 3 They put thy Judgments from their Sight, And then insult the Poor; They boast in their exalted Height, That they shall fall no more. 4 Arise, O GOD, lift up thine Hand, Attend our humble Cry; No Enemy shall dare to stand, When GOD ascends on high. Pause. 5 Why do the Men of Malice rage, And say, with foolish Pride, "The GOD of Heav'ns will ne'er engage "To fight on Zion's Side." 6 But thou for ever art our Lord, And pow'rful is thine Hand, As when the Heathen felt thy Sword, And perish'd from thy Land. 7 Thou wilt prepare our Hearts to pray, And cause thine Ear to hear; He hearkens what his Children say, And puts the World in Fear. 8 Proud Tyrants shall no more oppress, No more despise the Just; And mighty Sinners shall confess They are but Earth and Dust. Scripture: Psalm 10 Languages: English

Temptation in Sickness overcome

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #11 (1740) Topics: Devotions on a sick Bed First Line: Lord, I can suffer thy rebukes Lyrics: 1 Lord, I can suffer thy rebukes, When thou with Kindness dost chastise; But thy fierce Wrath I cannot bear, O let it not against me rise! 2 Pity my languishing Estate, And ease the Sorrows that I feel; The Wounds thine heavy Hand hath made, O let thy gentler Touches heal! 3 See how I pass my weary Days In Sighs and Groans; and when 'tis Night My Bed is water'd with my Tears; My Grief consumes, and dims my Sight. 4 Look, how the Powers of Nature mourn! How long, Almighty GOD, how long? When shall thine Hour of Grace return? When shall I make thy Grace my Song? 5 I feel my Flesh so near the Grave, My Thoughts are tempted to despair; But Graves can never praise the Lord, For all is Dust and silence there. 6 Depart, ye Tempters, from my Soul; And all despairing thoughts, depart; My GOD, who hears my humble Moan, Will ease my Flesh, and cheer my Heart.

While Men grow bold in wicked Ways

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P36b (1766) Topics: Devotions on a sick Bed Lyrics: 1 While Men grow bold in wicked Ways, And yet a GOD they own, My Heart within me often says, "Their Thoughts believe there's none." 2 Their Thoughts and Ways at once declare (Whate'er their Lips profess) GOD hath no Wrath for them to fear, Nor will they seek his Grace. 3 What strange Self-flatt'ry blinds their Eyes? But there's a hast'ning Hour, When they shall see with sore Surprize The Terrors of thy Pow'r. 4 Thy Justice shall maintain its Throne, Tho' Mountains melt away; Thy Judgments are a World unknown, A deep unfathom'd Sea. 5 Above these Heav'n's created Rounds, Thy Mercies, Lord, extend: Thy Truth out-lives the narrow Bounds, Where Time and Nature end. 6 Safety to Man thy Goodness brings, Nor overlooks the Beast; Beneath the Shadow of thy Wings Thy Children chuse to rest. 7 [From Thee, when Creature-Streams run low. And mortal Comforts die, Perpetual Springs of Life shall flow, And raise our Pleasures high. 8 Tho' all created Light decay, And Death close up our Eyes, Thy Presence makes eternal Day, Where Clouds can never rise.] Scripture: Psalm 36:1-9 Languages: English
