The Bosom Where I Oft Have Lain
Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The bosom where I oft have lain,
And slept my infant hours away,
Will never beat for me again,
For it lies dead, and wrapped in clay.
2 How many were the silent prayers
My mother offered up for me;
How many were the bitter cares
She felt when none but God could see.
3 Well, she is gone, and now in Heav’n
She sings His praise, who died for her:
And to her hand a harp is given,
And she’s a heavenly worshipper.
4 O, let me think of all she said,
And all the kind advice she gave;
And let me do it now she’s dead,
And sleeping in her lowly grave.
5 And let me choose the path she chose,
And her I soon again may see,
Beyond this world of sin and woes,
With Jesus, in eternity.

The Bosom Where I Oft Have Lain
In This Lone Hour Of Deep Distress
Author: William L. Dennis Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In this lone hour of deep distress,
When heavy sorrows round me press,
Encouraged by Thy gracious word,
I trust Thee as the widow’s God.
2 A husband lies in death’s embrace,
The grave is now his resting place;
O, as I pass beneath Thy rod,
Reveal Thyself the widow’s God.
3 Assuage my grief, remove my fears,
Suppress my murmuring, dry my tears;
Help me to own Thee as my Lord,
And bless Thee as the widow’s God.
4 Be Thou my counselor and stay,
Protect by night, and guide by day;
Then, as I travel life’s rough road,
I’ll praise Thee as the widow’s God. Used With Tune: HATTIE Text Sources: The Baptist Harp (Philadelphia: American Baptist Publication Society, 1849)
