"Foretastes"
Author: O. P. Appears in 54 hymnals Topics: Communion of Saints With God First Line: For the mercies of the day Lyrics: 1 For the mercies of the day,
For this rest upon our way,
Thanks to thee alone be given,
Lord of earth and King of heaven!
2 Cold our services have been,
Mingled every prayer with sin:
But thou canst and wilt forgive;
By thy grace alone we live.
3 While this thorny path we tread,
May thy love our footsteps lead;
When our journey here is past,
May we rest with thee at last.
4 Let these earthly Sabbaths prove
Fortastes of our joys above;
While their steps thy children bend
To the rest which knows no end. Used With Tune: SEYMOUR

Adds more lustre to the day.

Joys that through all time abide.

There, through one bright, eternal age,
Thy praises they prolong.

Of that thrice happy whole,
Derive its pulse from Thee, the heart,
Its life from Thee, the soul.
Amen.

And chase these shadowy forms no more
Seek out some solitude to mourn,
And thy forsaken God implore.

Distinctly marks each deep recess;
In these sequester'd hours draw nigh,
And with thy presence fill the place.
3 Thro' all the windings of my heart,
My search let heavenly wisdom guide;
And still its radiant beams impart,
'Till all be search'd and purify'd.
4 Then, with the Visits of thy love,
Vouchsafe my inmost soul to cheer;
'Till every grace shall join to prove,
That God hath fix'd his dwelling there.
Scripture: Psalm 4:4
