Give to the Winds Thy Fears

Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676; John Wesley, 1703-1791 Appears in 527 hymnals Topics: The Christian Way of Life Peace and Contentment Lyrics: 1 Give to the winds thy fears, Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears, God shall lift up thy head, Through waves and clouds and storms He gently clears the way; Wait thou His time, so shall the night Soon end in joyous day. 2 Still heavy is thy heart? Still sink thy spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, And every care be gone. He everywhere has sway, And all things serve His mind; His every act pure blessing is, His path unsullied light. 3 Far, far above thy thought His counsel shall appear, When fully He the work hath wrought That caused thy needless fear. Leave to His sovereign will To choose and to command: With wonder filled, thou then shalt own How wise, how strong His hand. Amen. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

Quieting Thoughts

Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: Contentment First Line: On the good and faithful Lyrics: 1 On the good and faithful God has set His love; When they call He sends them Blessings from above. Stand in awe, and sin not, Bid your heart be still; Thro' the silent watches Think upon His will. 2 Lay upon God's altar Good and loving deeds, And in all things trust Him To supply your needs. Anxious and despairing, Many walk in night; But to those that fear Him God will send His light. 3 In God's love abiding, I have joy and peace More than all the wicked, Tho' their wealth increase. In His care confiding, I will sweetly sleep, For the Lord, my Saviour, Will in safety keep. Scripture: Psalm 4 Used With Tune: PENITENCE

It is the Lord— let him do as seemeth him good

Author: T. Greene Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Contentment First Line: It is the Lord— enthron'd in light Lyrics: 1 It is the Lord — enthron'd in light, Whose claims are all divine; who has an undisputed right To govern me and mine. 2 It is the Lord — should I distrust, Or contradict his will? Who cannot do but what is just, And must be righteous still. 3 It is the Lord — who gives me all My wealth, my friends, my ease; And of his bounties may recall Whatever part he please. 4 It is the Lord — who can sustain Beneath the heaviest load, From whom assistance I obtain To tread the thorny road. 5 It is the Lord — whose matchless skill Can from afflictions raise Matter eternity to fill With ever-growing praise. 6 It is the Lord — my cov'nant God, Thrice blessed be his name! Whose gracious promise, seal'd with blood, Must ever be the same. 7 His cov'nant will my soul defend, Should nature's self expire: And the great judge of all descend In awful flames of fire. 8 And can my soul with hopes like these, Be sullen, or repine? No, gracious God, take what thou please, I'll cheerfully resign. Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:18
