My God, how many are my Fears!

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P3a (1766) Topics: Doubts and Fears suppressed Lyrics: 1 My GOD, how many are my Fears! How fast my Foes increase! Conspiring my eternal Death, They break my present Peace. 2 The lying Tempter would persuade There's no Relief in Heaven. And all my swelling Sins appear Too big to be forgiven. 3 But thou, my Glory and my Strength, Shalt on the Tempter tread, Shalt silence all my threat'ning Guilt, And raise my drooping Head. 4 [I cry'd, and from his holy Hill He bowed a list'ning Ear; I call'd my Father and my GOD, And he subdu'd my Fear. 5 He shed soft Slumbers on mine Eyes; In spight of all my Foes; I 'woke, and wonder'd at the Grace That guarded my Repose.] 6 What tho' the Hosts of Death and Hell, All arm'd against me stood: Terrors no more shall shake my Soul; My Refuge is my GOD. 7 Arise, O Lord, fulfil thy Grace, While I thy Glory sing; My GOD has broke the Serpent's Teeth, And Death has lost his Sting. 8 Salvation to the Lord belongs, His Arm alone can save. Blessings attend thy People here, And reach beyond the Grave. Scripture: Psalm 3 Languages: English

Psalm 3

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.7 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Doubts and fears suppressed; Fears and doubts suppressed First Line: My God, how many are my fears! Lyrics: My God, how many are my fears! How fast my foes increase! Conspiring my eternal death, They break my present peace. The lying tempter would persuade There's no relief in heav'n; And all my swelling sins appear Too big to be forgiv'n. But thou, my glory and my strength, Shalt on the tempter tread, Shalt silence all my threatening guilt, And raise my drooping head. [I cried, and from his holy hill He bowed a listening ear; I called my Father, and my God, And he subdued my fear. He shed soft slumbers on mine eyes, In spite of all my foes; I woke, and wondered at the grace That guarded my repose.] What though the hosts of death and hell All armed against me stood, Terrors no more shall shake my soul; My refuge is my God. Arise, O Lord, fulfil thy grace, While I thy glory sing; My God has broke the serpent's teeth, And death has lost his sting. Salvation to the Lord belongs; His arm alone can save: Blessings attend thy people here, And reach beyond the grave. Scripture: Psalm 3 Languages: English

Trust and confidence; or, looking beyond present appearances

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCLXXXVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fears and doubts removed First Line: Away my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear! Let fear to me no more take place! My savior doth not yet appear, He hides the brightness of his face: But shall I therefore let him go, And basely to the tempter yield? No, in the strength of Jesus no! I never will give up the shield. 2 Altho' the vine its fruits deny, Altho' the olive yield no oil, The withering fig-tree droop and die, The field illude the tiller's toil; The empty stall no herd afford, And perish all the bleating race; Yet I will triumph in the Lord, The God of my salvation praise. 3 Away, each unbelieving fera, Let Fear to cheering hope give place; My Savior will at length appear, And shew the brightness of his face: Tho now my prospects all be crost, My blooming hopes cut off I see, Still will I in my Jesus trust, Whose boundless love can reach to me. 4 In hope, believing against hope, His promis'd mercy will I claim, His gracious word shall bear me up, To seek salvation in his name: Sure, my dear Savior, bring it nigh! My soul shall then outstrip the wind, On wings of love mount up on high, And leave the world and sin behind. Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18 Languages: English

Fears removed—It is I, be not afraid

Author: Jesse Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCLXXXIX (1792) Topics: Fears and doubts removed First Line: Unclean, unclean, and full of sin Lyrics: 1 Unclean! unclean! and full of sin, From first to last, alas, I've been! Deceitful is my heart: Guilt presses down my burden'd soul, But Jesus can the waves controul, And bid my fears depart. 2 When first I heard his word of grace, Ungratefully I hid my face, Ungratefully delay'd: At length his voice more powerful came, " 'Tis I" he cry'd "I, still the same, "Thou need's not be afraid." 3 My heart was chang'd, in that same hour My soul confess'd his mighty power, Outflow'd the briny tear: I listen'd still to hear his voice, Again he said, "in me rejoice, " 'Tis I, thou need's not fear." 4 "Unworthy of thy love," I cry'd, "Freely I love," he soon reply'd, "On me thy faith be staid; "On me for every thing depend, "I'm Jesus still, the sinner's friend. "Thou need'st not be afraid." Scripture: John 6:20 Languages: English

Come, Children, learn to fear the Lord

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P34d (1766) Topics: Fears and doubts suppressed Lyrics: 1 Come, Children, learn to fear the Lord And that your Days be long, Let not a false or spiteful Word Be found upon your Tongue. 2 Depart from Mischief, practise Love, Pursue the Works of Peace; So shall the Lord your Ways approve, And set your Souls at Ease. 3 His Eyes awake to guard the Just, His Ears attend their Cry; When broken Spirits dwell in Dust, The GOD of Grace is nigh. 4 What tho' the Sorrows here they taste Are sharp and tedious too, The Lord who saves them all at last, Is their Supporter now. 5 Evil shall smite the Wicked dead; But GOD secures his own, Prevents the Mischief when they slide, Or heals the broken Bone. 6 When Desolation, like a Flood, O'er the proud Sinner rolls, Saints find a Refuge in their God, For he redeem'd their Souls. Scripture: Psalm 34:11-22 Languages: English
