Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Resignation First Line: Rest in the Lord and be thou still Lyrics: 1 Rest in the Lord and be thou still, With patience wait His holy will, Enduring to the end. Fret not tho' sinners' gains increase; forsake thy wrath, from anger cease; It will to evil tend. 2 The evildoer soon shall die, But those that on the Lord rely Shall all the land obtain; A little while and thou shalt see That wicked men cut off shall be, They shall be sought in vain. 3 Yea, thou shalt soon consider well The place where they were wont to dwell, And it shall not be found; But saints shall all the land possess, And find delight and happiness where fruits of peace abound. 4 The vile may plot against the just who in the Lord Jehovah trust, But God will scorn them all; The Lord their coming day shall see, When broken all their pow'r shall be, And ruin on them fall. Scripture: Psalm 37 Used With Tune: KINGSTON

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Resignation First Line: I constant care will take Lyrics: 1 I constant care will take, Lest sinful words they hear; My lips their silence shall not break While wicked men are near. 2 I dumb and silent stood, No words of mine were heard; I e'en refrained from speaking good, Till sorrow's deeps were stirred. 3 My heart was all on fire, With burning tho'ts suppressed; My tongue was loosed, my soul's desire I then to God addressed. 4 My end, Lord, make me know, My days, how soon they fall; And to my thoughtful spirit show How weak I am and frail. 5 To Thy eternal thought My days are but a span; To Thee my years appear as nought, A breath at best is man. 6 Man lives in empty show, His anxious care is vain, He hoards his wealth, and does not know Who shall possess his gain. Scripture: Psalm 39 Used With Tune: AYLESBURY

The contrite heart

Author: Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 126 hymnals Topics: Graces of the Spirit Resignation First Line: The Lord will happiness divine Lyrics: 1 The Lord will happiness divine On contrite hearts bestow; Then tell me, gracious God, is mine A contrite heart or no? 2 I hear, but seem to hear in vain, Insensible as steel; If aught is felt, 'tis only pain To find I cannot feel. 3 I sometimes think myself inclin'd To love thee, if I could; But often feel another mind, Averse to all that's good. 4 My best desires are faint and few, I fain would strive for more; But when I cry, "my strength renew," Seem weaker than before. 5 Thy saints are comforted I know And love thy house of prayer; I sometimes go where others go, But find no comfort there. 6 O make this heart rejoice or ache; Decide this doubt for me; And, if it be not broken, break, And heal it, if it be. Scripture: Isaiah 57:15

Thy way, O God, is in the sea

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 145 hymnals Topics: Resignation Lyrics: 1 Thy way, O God, is in the sea, Thy paths I cannot trace, Nor comprehend the mystery Of Thine unbounded grace. 2 Here the dark veils of flesh and sense My captive soul surround; Mysterious deeps of providence My wondering thoughts confound. 3 As through a glass, I dimly see The wonders of Thy love, How little do I know of Thee, Or of the joys above! 4 'Tis but in part I know Thy will, I bless Thee for the sight; When will Thy love the rest reveal In glory's clearer light? 5 With raptures shall I then survey Thy providence and grace; And spend an everlasting day In wonder, love and praise.
