The Church has waited long
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Church has waited long
Her absent Lord to see,
And still in loneliness she waits,
A friendless stranger she.
2. The serpent’s brood increase,
The pow’rs of Hell grow bold,
The conflict thickens, faith is low,
And love is waxing cold.
3. We long to hear your voice,
To see you face to face,
To share your crown and glory then,
As now we share your grace.
4. Should not the loving bride
The absent bridegroom mourn?
Should not she wear the weeds of grief
Until her Lord’s return?
5. The whole creation groans
And waits to hear the voice
That shall restore her loveliness
And make her heart rejoice.
6. Come, Lord, and wipe away
The curse, the sin, the stain,
And make this blighted world of ours
Your own fair world again. Topics: Advent Scripture: Matthew 24:42-44 Used With Tune: ST. THOMAS

My Soul, Repeat His Praise
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 468 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat His praise
Whose mercies are so great;
Whose anger is so slow to rise,
So ready to abate.
2 High as the heav'ns are raised
Above the ground we tread,
So far the riches of His grace
Our highest thoughts exceed.
3 His grace subdues our sins,
And His forgiving love
Far as the east is from the west
Doth all our guilt remove.
4 The pity of the Lord
To those who fear His name
Is such as tender parents feel;
He knows our feeble frame.
5 Our days are as the grass,
Or like the morning flower;
If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field,
It withers in an hour.
6 But Thy compassions, Lord,
To endless years endure;
And children's children ever find
Thy words of promise sure.
Amen.

his covenant shall endure;
though clouds and darkness hide his path,
the promised grace is sure.

hope, and be undismayed:
God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears;
God shall lift up thy head.

his power will clear thy way:
wait thou his time; the darkest night
shall end in brightest day.

to choose and to command;
so shalt thou, wondering, own his way,
how wise, how strong his hand. Topics: Commitment; Dévotion; Discipleship; Faith; God Will of; Grâce; Sorrow; Trust and Confidence Scripture: Proverbs 3:5-6 Used With Tune: ST THOMAS
