O for a heart to praise my God!

Author: Rev. Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,194 hymnals Topics: Resting in God Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God! A heart from sin set free; A heart that always feels Thy blood, So freely shed for me; 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer's throne, Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone; 3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean, Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within; 4 A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine, Perfect and right and pure and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine! 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart; Come quickly from above; Write Thy new Name upon my heart, Thy new, best Name of Love. Amen. Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM

O God, Give Thou Ear to My Plea

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Peace and Rest Lyrics: 1 O God, give Thou ear to my plea, And hide not Thyself from my cry; O hearken and answer Thou me, As restless and weary I sigh. 2 O that I had wings like a dove, For then I would fly far away And seek for the rest that I love, Where trouble no more could dismay. 3 Nay, soul, call on god all the day; The Lord for Thy help will appear; At eve, morn, and noon humbly pray, And He thy petition will hear. 4 Thy burden now cast on the Lord, And He shall thy weakness sustain; The righteous who trust in His word Unmoved shall forever remain. Scripture: Psalm 55 Used With Tune: ASSIUT

Chorus: Under His wings, under His wings, Who from His love can sever? Under His wings my soul shall abide, Safely abide forever. 2 Under His wings, what a refuge in sorrow! How the heart yearningly turns to His rest! Often when earth has no balm for my healing, There I find comfort, and there I am blest. [Chorus] 3 Under His wings, O what precious enjoyment! There will I hide till life's trials are o'er; Sheltered, protected, no evil can harm me; Resting in Jesus I'm safe evermore. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Under His wings, I am safely abiding]

Sweet is the sunlight after rain

Author: Dr. W. M. Punshon, 1824-1881 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Rest Sabbath; Rest Sabbath; Day Of Rest; Rest Day of Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the sunlight after rain, And sweet the sleep which follows pain; And sweetly steals the Sabbath rest Upon the world's work-wearied breast. 2 Of heaven the sign, of earth the calm; The poor man's birthright and his balm; God's witness of celestial things; A sun with healing in its wings. 3 New rising in this gospel time, And in its sevenfold light sublime, Blest day of God! we hail its dawn, To gratitude and worship drawn. 4 O nought of gloom and nought of pride Should with the sacred hours abide; At work for God, in loved employ, We lose the duty in the joy. 5 Breathe on us, Lord! our sins forgive, And make us strong in faith to live; Our utmost, sorest need supply, And make us strong in faith to die.

How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Rest Lyrics: 1 How lovely is thy dwelling place, O Lord of hosts, to me! My thirsty soul desires and longs within thy courts to be; my very heart and flesh cry out, O living God, for thee. 2 Beside thine altars, gracious Lord, the swallows find a nest; how happy they who dwell with thee and praise thee without rest, and happy they whose hearts are set upon the pilgrims' quest. 3 They who go through the desert vale will find it filled with springs, and they shall climb from height to height till Zion's temple rings with praise to thee, in glory throned, Lord God, great King of kings. 4 One day within thy courts excels a thousand spent away; how happy they who keep thy laws nor from thy precepts stray, for thou shalt surely bless all those who live the words they pray. Optional stanza from Psalm 23: Goodness and mercy all my life shall surely follow me, and in God's house forevermore my dwelling place shall be; and in God's house forevermore my dwelling place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 84 Used With Tune: BROTHER JAMES' AIR Text Sources: Scottish Psalter, 1650 (sts. 1, 2 and opt. sts.)
