When Gloomy Thoughts And Fears
Author: Anne Steele, 1716-1778 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 54 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 When gloomy thoughts and fears
The trembling heart invade,
And all the face of nature wears
A universal shade;
2 Religion can assuage
The tempest of the soul;
And every fear shall lose its rage
At her divine control.
3 Through life’s bewildered way,
Her hand unerring leads;
And o’er the path her heavenly ray
A cheering luster sheds.
4 When reason, tired and blind,
Sinks helpless and afraid,
Thou blest supporter of the mind,
How powerful is thine aid!
5 Oh, let me feel thy power,
And find thy sweet relief,
To brighten every gloomy hour,
And soften every grief.

When Gloomy Thoughts And Fears
There Is Beyond the Sky
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 45 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 There is beyond the sky
A Heav’n of joy and love;
And holy children when they die
Go to that world above.
2 There is a dreadful hell,
And everlasting pains;
There sinners must with devils dwell
In darkness, fire and chains.
3 Can such a wretch as I
Escape this cursèd end?
And may I hope whene’er I die
I shall to Heav’n ascend?
4 Then will I read and pray,
While I have life and breath;
Lest I should be cut off today,
And sent to endless death. Used With Tune: ORRINGTON Text Sources: Divine Songs for Children, 1715, alt.
