Entreaty and Hopeful Trust

Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Procrastination First Line: Lord, hear me when I pray Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear me when I pray, And answer me in grace; Oft as I hear Thee say, Come ye and seek My face, My heart and lips their answer speak, Thy face, Jehovah, will I seek. 2 Hide no thy face from me, In wrath turn not away, My help and Saviour be, Forsake me not, I pray; Should father, mother, both forsake, The Lord on me will pity take. 3 Teach me, O Lord, Thy way, Make plain tome my path; Because my foes, I pray, Protect me from their wrath; To false accusers, cruel foes, O Lord, do not my soul expose. 4 Faint-hearted would I be, Didst Thou not promise, Lord, I shall Thy goodness see While Thou dost life accord. Wait on the Lord, nor faint, nor fear, Yea, trust and wait, the Lord is near. Scripture: Psalm 27 Used With Tune: SAMUEL

Religion is the chief concern

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 255 hymnals Topics: Procrastination Lyrics: 1 Religion is the chief concern Of mortals here below: May I its great importance learn, Its sovereign virtue know! 2 More needful this, than glitt'ring wealth, Or aught the world bestows; Nor reputation, food or health, Can give us such repose. 3 Religion should our thoughts engage, Amidst our youthful bloom; 'Twill fit us for declining age, And for the awful tomb. 4 Oh, may my heart, by grace renew'd, Be my Redeemer's throne; And be my stubborn will subdued, His government to own. 5 Let deep repentance, faith, and love Be join'd with godly fear; And all my conversation prove My heart to be sincere.

There is a time, we know not when

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 86 hymnals Topics: Procrastination Lyrics: 1 There is a time, we know not when, A point, we know not where, That marks the destiny of men To glory or despair. 2 There is a line, by us unseen, That crosses every path; The hidden boundary between God's patience and His wrath. 3 Oh, where is this mysterious bourn, By which our path is cross'd? Beyond which, God Himself hath sworn, That he who goes is lost. 4 How far may we go on in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin The confines of despair? 5 An answer from the skies is sent: "Ye that from God depart, While it is called to-day, repent And harden not your heart."

Life is the time to serve the Lord

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 352 hymnals Topics: Procrastination Lyrics: 1 Life is the time to serve the Lord, The time t'ensure the great reward; And while the lamp holds out to burn, The vilest sinner may return. 2 Life is the hour that God has given To ’scape from hell and fly to heaven; The day of grace, and mortals may Secure the blessings of the day. 3 Then what my thoughts design to do, My hands, with all your might pursue, Since no device, nor work is found, Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground. 4 There are no acts of pardon past In the cold grave, to which we haste, But darkness, death, and long despair Reign in eternal silence there.
