While Thee I Seek, Protecting Power
Author: Helen M. Williams Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7400 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. While Thee I seek, protecting Power,
Be my vain wishes stilled;
And may this consecrated hour
With better hopes be filled.
2. Thy love the power of thought bestowed;
To Thee my thoughts would soar:
Thy mercy o’er my life has flowed;
That mercy I adore.
3. In each event of life, how clear
Thy ruling hand I see!
Each blessing to my soul more dear,
Because conferred by Thee.
4. In every joy that crowns my days,
In every pain I bear,
My heart shall find delight in praise,
Or seek relief in prayer.
5. When gladness wings my favored hour,
Thy love my thoughts shall fill;
Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower,
My soul shall meet Thy will.
6. My lifted eye, without a tear,
The gathering storm shall see:
My steadfast heart shall know no fear;
That heart will rest on Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: SIMPSON

Why Has My God My Soul Forsook?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7413 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why has my God my soul forsook Lyrics: 1. Why has my God my soul forsook,
Nor will a smile afford?
Thus David once in anguish spoke,
And thus our dying Lord.
2. Though ’tis Thy chief delight to dwell
Among Thy praising saints,
Yet Thou canst hear a groan as well,
And pity our complaints.
3. Our fathers trusted in Thy name,
And great deliverance found;
But I’m a worm, despised of men,
And trodden to the ground.
4. Shaking the head, they pass me by,
And laugh my soul to scorn;
In vain he trusts in God, they cry,
Neglected and forlorn.
5. But Thou art He who formed my flesh
By Thine almighty Word;
And since I hung upon the breast,
My hope is in the Lord.
6. Why will my Father hide His face,
When foes stand threatening round,
In the dark hour of deep distress,
And not a helper found?
7. Behold Thy darling left among
The cruel and the proud,
As bulls of Bashan, fierce and strong,
As lions roaring loud.
8. From earth and hell My sorrows meet
To multiply the smart;
They nail My hands, they pierce My feet,
And try to vex My heart.
9. Yet if Thy sovereign hand let loose
The rage of earth and hell,
Why will my heav’nly Father bruise
The Son He loves so well?
10. My God, if possible it be,
Withhold this bitter cup
But I resign my will to Thee,
And drink the sorrows up.
11. My heart dissolves with pangs unknown,
In groans I waste my breath;
Thy heavy hand has brought Me down
Low as the dust of death.
12. Father, I give My Spirit up,
And trust it in Thy hand;
My dying flesh shall rest in hope,
And rise at Thy command. Languages: English Tune Title: WINDSOR
Why Has My God My Soul Forsook?
We Have Not Seen, We Cannot See
Author: John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7416 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. We have not seen, we cannot see,
The happy land above,
From sin and death and suffering free,
Where all is peace and love.
2. We only see the path is long
By which we have to go;
We only feel the foes are strong
Who seek to work us woe.
3. We have not seen, we cannot see
The cross our Master bore,
With all its pains, that we might be
The slaves of sin no more.
4. We only think it hard to part
With every pleasant sin,
And give to God a perfect heart,
And make Him Lord within.
5. We walk by faith, and not by sight;
And, blessèd saint, like thee,
We sometimes doubt if faith tells right,
Because we cannot see.
6. Upon the promise we would lean
Thy doubting heart received;
Blessèd are they that have not seen,
And that have yet believed. Languages: English Tune Title: BEULAH
We Have Not Seen, We Cannot See

Why Did the Nations Join to Slay
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7449 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Why did the nations join to slay
The Lord’s anointed Son?
Why did they cast His laws away,
And tread His Gospel down?
2. The Lord, that sits above the skies,
Derides their rage below;
He speaks with vengeance in His eyes,
And strikes their spirits through.
3. “I call him my eternal Son,
And raise Him from the dead;
I make My holy hill His throne,
And wide His kingdom spread.
4. Ask Me, My Son, and then enjoy
The utmost heathen lands:
Thy rod of iron shall destroy
The rebel that withstands.
5. Be wise, ye rulers of the earth,
Obey th’ anointed Lord,
Adore the king of heav’nly birth,
And tremble at His Word.
6. With humble love address His throne;
For if He frown, ye die:
Those are secure, and those alone,
Who on His grace rely. Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH
Why Did the Nations Join to Slay
Why Doth the Man of Riches Grow?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7450 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why doth the man of riches grow Lyrics: 1. Why doth the man of riches grow
To insolence and pride,
To see his wealth and honors flow
With every rising tide?
2. Why doth he treat the poor with scorn,
Made of the self-same clay,
And boast as though his flesh was born
Of better dust than they?
3. Not all his treasures can procure
His soul a short reprieve,
Redeem from death one guilty hour,
Or make his brother live.
4. Life is a blessing can’t be sold,
The ransom is too high;
Justice will ne’er be bribed with gold,
That man may never die.
5. He sees the brutish and the wise,
The timorous and the brave,
Quit their possessions, close their eyes,
And hasten to the grave.
6. Yet ’tis his inward thought and pride—
My house shall ever stand
And that my name may long abide,
I’ll give it to my land.
7. Vain are his thoughts, his hopes are lost,
How soon his memory dies!
His name is written in the dust
Where his own carcass lies.
8. This is the folly of their way;
And yet their sons, as vain,
Approve the words their fathers say,
And act their works again.
9. Men void of wisdom and of grace,
If honor raise them high,
Live like the beast, a thoughtless race,
And like the beast they die.
10. Laid in the grave like silly sheep,
Death feeds upon them there,
Till the last trumpet break their sleep
In terror and despair. Languages: English Tune Title: DORCHESTER
Why Doth the Man of Riches Grow?
Why Do We Mourn Departing Friends?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7452 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why do we mourn departing friends Lyrics: 1. Why do we mourn departing friends,
Or shake at death’s alarms?
’Tis but the voice that Jesus sends
To call them to His arms.
2. Are we not tending upward, too,
As fast as time can move?
Nor would we wish the hours more slow
To keep us from our love.
3. Why should we tremble to convey
Their bodies to the tomb?
There the dear flesh of Jesus lay,
And left a long perfume.
4. The graves of all His saints He blessed,
And softened every bed;
Where should the dying members rest,
But with the dying Head?
5. Thence He arose, ascending high,
And showed our feet the way;
Up to the Lord our flesh shall fly,
At the great rising day.
6. Then let the last loud trumpet sound,
And bid our kindred rise;
Awake, ye nations under ground;
Ye saints, ascend the skies. Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
