If Thou But Trust in God to Guide Thee

Author: Georg Neumark; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 193 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If thou but trust in God to guide thee and hope in him through all thy ways, he'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee, and bear thee through the evil days; who trusts in God's unchanging love builds on the rock that nought can move. 2 Only be still, and wait his leisure in cheerful hope, with heart content to take whate'er thy Father's pleasure and all-discerning love hath sent; nor doubt our inmost wants are known to him who chose us for his own. 3 Sing, pray, and keep his ways unswerving, so do thine own part faithfully, and trust his Word; though undeserving. Thou yet shalt find it true for thee. God never yet forsook at need the soul that trusted him indeed.

As Oft, with Worn and Weary Feet

Author: James Edmeston Appears in 59 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As oft, with worn and weary feet, We tread earth’s rugged valley o’er, The thought, how comforting and sweet: Christ trod this very path before! Our wants and weaknesses He knows, From life’s first dawning to its close. 2. Does sickness, feebleness or pain Or sorrow in our path appear? The recollection will remain, More deeply did He suffer here: His life, how truly sad and brief, Filled up with suffering and with grief. 3. If Satan tempt our hearts to stray And whisper evil things within, So did he, in the desert way, Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin, When worn and in a feeble hour The tempter came with all his power. 4. Just such as I, this earth He trod, With every human ill but sin; And though indeed the very God, As I am now so He has been. My God, my Savior, look on me, With pity, love and sympathy.

Mir ist Erbarmung widerfahren

Author: Philipp Friedrich Hiller Appears in 85 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Mir ist Erbarmung widerfahren, Erbarmung, deren ich nicht wert; das zähl ich zu dem Wunderbaren, mein stolzes Herz hat's nie begehrt. Nun weiß ich das und bin erfreut und rühme die Barmherzigkeit. 2 Ich hatte nichts als Zorn verdienet und soll bei Gott in Gnaden sein; Gott hat mich mit sich selbst versühnet und macht durchs Blut des Sohns mich rein. Wo kam dies her, warum geschieht's? Erbarmung ist's und weiter nichts. 3 Das muß ich dir, mein Gott, bekennen, das rühm ich, wenn ein Mensch mich fragt; ich kann es nur Erbarmung nennen, so ist mein ganzes Herz gesagt. Ich beuge mich und bin erfreut und rühme die Barmherzigkeit. 4 Dies laß ich kein Geschöpf mir rauben, dies soll mein einzig Rühmen sein; auf dies Erbarmen will ich glauben, auf dieses bet ich auch allein, auf dieses duld ich in der Not, auf dieses hoff ich noch im Tod. 5 Gott, der du reich bist an Erbarmen, reiß dein Erbarmen nicht von mir und führe durch den Tod mich Armen durch meines Heilands Tod zu dir; da bin ich ewig recht erfreut und rühme die Barmherzigkeit.

Weary of wandering from my God

Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 149 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Weary of wandering from my God, And now made willing to return, I hear, and bow me to the rod; For Thee, not without hope, I mourn: I have an Advocate above, A Friend before the throne of Love. 2 O Jesus, full of truth and grace, More full of grace than I of sin; Yet once again I seek Thy face, Open Thine arms and take me in; And freely my backslidings heal, And love the faithless sinner still. 3 Thou know'st the way to bring me back, My fallen spirit to restore; O, for Thy truth and mercy's sake, Forgive, and bid me sin no more: The ruins of my soul repair, And make my heart a house of prayer.
