How Tedious and Tasteless the Hours

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: African American Heritage Hymnal #403 (2001) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Faithfulness of the believer Lyrics: 1 How tedious and tasteless the hours When Jesus no longer I see! Sweet prospects, sweet birds, and sweet flow'rs, Have all lost their sweetness to me. The midsummer sun shines but dim; The fields strive in vain to look gay; But when I am happy in Him, December's as pleasant as May. 2 His name yields the richest perfume, And sweeter than music His voice; His presence disperses my gloom, And makes all within me rejoice; I should, were He always thus nigh, Have nothing to wish or to fear; No mortal so happy as I; My summer would last all the year. 3 Content with beholding His face, My all to His pleasure resigned, No changes of seasons or place Would make any change in my mind. While blest with a sense of His love, A palace a toy would appear; And prisons would palaces prove, If Jesus would dwell with me there. 4 Dear Lord, if indeed I am Thine, If Thou art my sun and my song, Say, why do I languish and pine? And why are my winter so long? O drive these dark clouds from my sky; Thy soul-cheering presence restore, Or take me unto Thee on high, Where winter and clouds are no more. Scripture: Zechariah 10:2 Languages: English Tune Title: DE FLEURY

Worlds are charging, heav'n beholding; Thou hast but an hour to fight; Now, the blazoned cross unfolding, On, right onward for the right! 3 Sworn to yield, to waver, never; Consecrated, born again; Sworn to be Christ’s soldiers ever, On! for Christ at least be men! On! let all the soul within you For the truth’s sake go abroad! Strike! let every nerve and sinew Tell on ages, tell for God. Amen.
