Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #483 (1917) Topics: Joy In Sorrow; Joy In Sorrow Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace
Of our High Priest above;
His heart is made of tenderness,
And yearns with pitying love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
He knows our feeble frame;
He knows what sore temptations mean,
For He hath felt the same.
3 He in the days of feeble flesh
Poured our His cries and tears;
And, though exalted, feels afresh
What every member bears.
4 He'll never quench the smoking flax,
But raise it to a flame;
The bruised reed He never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest name.
5 Then let our humble faith address
His mercy and His power;
We shall obtain delivering grace
In the distressing hour. Languages: English Tune Title: TALLIS' ORDINAL
