Zion's Glory and Safety

Hymnal: The Psalter #207 (1912) Topics: Anger of God Fearful First Line: God is know among His people Lyrics: 1 God is known among His people; Ev'ry mouth His praises fill From of old he has established His abode on Zion's hill. There He broke the sword and arrow, Bade the noise of war be still. 2 Excellent and glorious art Thou, With Thy trophies from the fray; Thou hast slain the the valiant-hearted Wrapt in sleep of death are they; When Thy anger once is risen, Who can stand in that dread day? 3 When from heav'n Thy sentence sounded, All the earth in fear was still, While to save the meek and lowly God in judgement wrought His will; E'en the wrath of man shall praise Thee, Thy design it shall fulfill. 4 Vow and pay ye to Jehovah, Him your God forever own; All men, bring your gifts before him; Worship Him and Him alone; Mighty kings obey and fear Him, Princes bow before His throne.

The Cry of the Mortal

Hymnal: The Psalter #244 (1912) Topics: Anger of God Fearful First Line: Lord, thro' all the generations Lyrics: 1 Lord, thro' all the generations Of the children of our race, In our fears and tribulations, Thou hast been our dwelling-place. Ere the vast and wide creation By Thy word was cased to be, Or the mountains held their station, Thou art God eternally. 2 Each succeeding generation At Thy mighty word appears; Thou dost count in time's duration One day as a thousand years. Death, with swift and sudden warning, Calls us from life's dream away, Like the grass, green in the morning, Withered ere the close of day. 3 In Thy wrath our spirits languish, Sinful 'neath Thy searching eye; All our days are passed in anguish, In Thy wrath we pine and id. Threescore years and ten we tarry, Fourscore years the strong may stay, Long the load of grief to carry, Till at last we fly away. 4 Who can weigh Thy just displeasure, Who can fear Thee as he ought? Teach us now our days to measure And to wisdom turn our thought. Lord, return, regard our sadness; with Thy servants now abide; Fill our days with joy and gladness, With Thy mercy satisfied. 5 Long the clouds of evil lower; Bless us now with gladsome days; Let Thy servants see Thy power, Let their children learn Thy praise. On us let the grace and beauty Of the Lord our God remain, Strengthen us for noble duty That our work be not in vain. Scripture: Psalm 90 Languages: English Tune Title: ARMSTRONG

Shall all my joys on earth remove, And God forever hide his love? 7 My God, thy long delay to save, Will sink thy prisoner to the grave; My heart grows faint, and dim mine eye; Make haste to help before I die. 8 The night is witness to my tears, Distressing pains, distressing fears; Oh might I hear thy morning voice, How would my weary powers rejoice! 9 In thee I trust, to thee I sigh, And lift my weary soul on high; For thee sit waiting all the day, And wear the tiresome hours away. 10 Break off my fetters, Lord, and show The paths in which my feet should go: If snares and foes beset the road, I'll flee to hide me near my God. 11 Teach me to do thy holy will, And lead me to thy heavenly hill: Let the good spirit of thy love Conduct me to thy courts above. 12 Then shall my soul no more complain, The tempter then shall rage in vain; And flesh that was my foe before, Shall never vex my spirit more.

Thou man of griefs, remember me

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #273 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Apprehension confessed, or Jesus was heard in that he feared Lyrics: 1 Thou man of griefs, remember me, Who never canst thyself forget Thy last, mysterious agony, Thy fainting pangs, and bloody sweat! 2 When, wrestling in the strength of prayer, Thy spirit sunk beneath its load! Thy feeble flesh afraid to bear The wrath of an almighty God! 3 Father if I may call thee so, Regard my fearful heart's desire, Remove this load of guilty wo, Nor let me in my sins expire! 4 I tremble lest the wrath divine, Which bruises now my sinful soul, Should bruise this wretched soul of mine, Long as eternal ages roll! 5 To thee, my last distress I bring! The heighten'd fear of death I find! The tyrant, brandishing his sting, Appears, and hell is close behind! 6 I deprecate that death alone, That endless banishment from thee! O save me, through thine only Son, Who trembled, wept, and bled for me! Scripture: Hebrews 5:7

Uncertain how the way to find

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #400 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience Doubts and Fears Lyrics: 1 Uncertain how the way to find Which to salvation led, I list'ned long, with anxious mind, To hear what others said. 2 When some of joys and comforts told, I fear'd that I was wrong; For I was stupid, dead, and cold-- Had neither joy nor song. 3 Of fierce temptations others talk'd, Of anguish and dismay; Thro' what distresses they had walk'd, Before they found the way. 4 Ah! then I thought my hopes were vain For I had lived at ease; I wish'd for all my fears again, To make me more like these. 5 I had my wish--the Lord disclos'd The evils of my heart; And left my naked soul expos'd To satan's fi'ry dart. 6 Alas! "I now must give it up," I cry'd in deep despair; How could I dream of drawing hope From what I cannot bear! 7 Again my Saviour brought me aid, And when he set me free, "Trust simply on my word," he said, "And leave the rest to me."
