Still out of the deepest Abyss

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCLXIV (1791) Lyrics: 1 Still out of the deepest Abyss Of Trouble I mournfully cry, And pine to recover my Peace, And see my Redeemer and die. I cannot, I cannot forbear These Passionate Longings for Home; O when shall my Spirit be there? O when will the Messenger come? 2 Thy Nature I long to put on, Thine Image on Earth to regain, And then in the Grave to lay down My Burden of Body and Pain; O JESUS in pity draw near, And lull me to sleep on thy Breast; Appear, to my Rescue, appear And gather me into thy Rest. 3 To take a poor Fugitive in The Arm of thy Mercy display, And give me to rest from all Sin, And bear me triumphant away: Away from a World of Distress, Away to the Mansions above, A Heaven of seeing thy Face, A Heaven of feeling thy Love.

Hymnal: Songs of Zion #22 (1821) Lyrics: 1. Still out of the deepest abyssOf trouble I mournfully cry,And pine to recover my peace,To see my Redeemer, and die:I cannot, I cannot forbearThese passionate longings for home:O! when shall my spirit be there?O when will the messenger come?2. Thy nature I long to put on,Thine image on earth to regain,And then in the grave to lay downMy burden of body and pain:O Jesus, in pity draw near,And lull me to sleep on thy breast,Appear, to my rescue appear,And gather me into the rest.3. To take a poor fugitive in,The arms of thy mercy display,And give me to rest from all sin,And bear me triumphant away;Away from a world of distress,Away to the mansions above,The heaven of seeing thy face,The heaven of feeling thy love.
