A Collection of Psalms and Hymns ‎#B.I

B.I. Amidst thy Wrath remember Love

1 Amidst thy Wrath remember Love,
Restore thy Servant, Lord!
Nor let a Father's Chast'ning prove
Like an Avenger's Sword!

2 My Sins a heavy Burden are,
And o'er my Head are gone;
Too heavy they for me to bear,
Too great for me t' atone.

3 My Thoughts are like a trouble Sea,
My Head still bending down:
And I go mourning all the Day,
Father, beneath thy Frown.

4 All my desire to thee is known,
Thine Eye counts every Tear,
And every Sigh and every Groan,
Is notic'd by thine Ear.

5 Thou art my God, my only Hope;
O hearken to my cry;
O bear my fainting Spirits up,
When Satan bids me die.

6 Lord, I confess my Guilt to thee,
I grieve for all my Sin;
My helpless Impotence I see,
And beg Support divine.

7 O God, forgive my Follies past;
Be thou for ever nigh;
O Lord of my Salvation, haste,
And save me, or I die!
