"Can a mother forget!"

Author: Anne Steele Appears in 46 hymnals First Line: A mother may forgetful be Lyrics: 1 A mother may forgetful be, For human love is frail; But thy Creator's love to thee, O Zion, cannot fail. 2 No: thy dear name engraven stands, In characters of love, On thine almighty Father's hands, And never shall remove. 3 Before his ever-watchful eye Thy mournful state appears, And every groan, and every sigh, Divine compassion hears. 4 O Zion, learn to doubt no more, Be every fear suppressed; Unchanging truth, and love, and power, Dwell in thy Saviour's breast.

Psalm 132

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 173 hymnals First Line: Arise, O King of grace! arise Lyrics: 1 Arise, O King of grace! arise, And enter to thy rest; Lo! thy church waits, with longing eyes, Thus to be owned and blest. 2 Enter, with all thy glorious train, Thy Spirit and thy word; All that the ark did once contain Could no such grace afford. 3 Here, mighty God! accept our vows; Here let thy praise be spread: Bless the provisions of thy house, And fill thy poor with bread. 4 Here let the Son of David reign, Let God's Anointed shine; Justice and truth his court maintain, With love and power divine. 5 Here let him hold a lasting throne; And, as his kingdom grows, Fresh honors shall adorn his crown, And shame confound his foes.
