Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Though I am poor and sorrowful, Hear Thou, O God, my cry; Let Thy salvation come to me And lift me up on high. 2 Then will I praise my God with song, To Him my thanks shall rise, And this shall please Jehovah more Than offered sacrifice. 3 The meek shall see it and rejoice; Ye saints, no more be sad; For lo, Jehovah hears the poor And makes His prisoners glad. 4 Let heaven and earth and seas rejoice, Let all therein give praise, For Zion God will surely save, Her broken walls will raise. 5 In Zion they that love His Name Shall dwell from age to age; Yea, there shall be their lasting rest, Their children's heritage.

Ho ve! ĉu sangis la Savant'

Author: Isaac Watts; Ros' Haruo Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Ho ve! ĉu sangis la Savant'? Ĉu mortis mia Di'? Ĉu li oferus kapon sanktan Pro pekema mi? 2. Ĉu mortis li pro mia krim'? Ho granda am-deklar'! Kompat' mirinda, grac' sen lim', Kaj amo sen kompar'! 3. Ja dece kovris sin la sun', Sin kaŝis ĝia bril': Por homaj pekoj per krucum' Kompensis Dia Fil'. 4. Ruĝigus min pro hont' skrupulo Antaŭ lia kruc', Kaj kaŭrus mi dum ĉe l' okul' Fluegus larma ŝpruc'. 5. Sed larmaj gutoj ne repagos Kiom ŝuldas mi: Jen, ho Sinjor', mi cedas min; Ne eblas fari pli!

Author: William R. Alger Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Father, kindly deign to hear The thanks Thy children bring; Help us with love and reverent fear Thy lofty praise to sing. 2 And while before Thy throne we bow, Come Thou to every heart: From sin O purify us now; Give us that better part. 3 Remove today the world’s wild din; Our souls from evil save; Help us life’s noblest crown to win; Guide us beyond the grave.
