But let me enter in.

Lord, Who May Dwell Within Your House

Lord, Who May Dwell Within Your House
How long wilt thou forget me, Lord?
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How long wilt thou forget me, Lord?
Shall it for ever be?
O how long shall it be that thou
wilt hide thy face from me?
2 How long take counsel in my soul,
still sad in heart, shall I?
How long exalted over me
shall be mine enemy?
3 O Lord my God, consider well,
and answer to me make:
mine eyes enlighten, lest the sleep
of death me overtake.
4 Lest that my enemy should say,
against him I prevail;
and those that trouble me rejoice,
when I am moved and fail.
5 But I have all my confidence
upon thy mercy set;
my heart within me shall rejoice
in thy salvation great.
6 Unto Jehovah then will I
sing praises cheerfully,
because he hath his bounty shown
to me abundantly.
Scripture: Psalm 13 Used With Tune: CHESHIRE
How long wilt thou forget me, Lord?
Woe to the Men on Earth Who Dwell
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 44 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Woe to the men on earth who dwell,
Nor dread the Almighty’s frown,
When God doth all His wrath reveal,
And shower His judgments down!
2. Sinners, expect those heaviest showers,
To meet your God prepare;
For, lo! the seventh angel pours
His phial in the air.
3. Lo! from their seats the mountains leap,
The mountains are not found;
Transported far into the deep,
And in the ocean drowned.
4. Who then shall live, and face the throne,
And face the Judge severe?
When heaven and earth are fled and gone,
O where shall I appear?
5. Now, only now, against that hour
We may a place provide;
Beyond the grave, beyond the power
Of hell, our spirits hide:
6. Firm in the all destroying shock,
May view the final scene;
For, lo! the everlasting Rock
Is cleft to take us in. Used With Tune: CHESHIRE Text Sources: Hymns Occasioned by the Earthquake, March 8, 1750, second edition, 1756
Woe to the Men on Earth Who Dwell
The Saviour comes! no outward pomp
Author: William Robertson, d. 1743 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Saviour comes! no outward pomp
Bespeaks His presence nigh;
No earthly beauty shines in Him
To draw the carnal eye.
2 Rejected and despised of men,
Behold a Man of woe!
And grief His close companion still
Through all His life below!
3 Yet all the griefs He felt were ours,
Ours were the woes He bore:
Pangs, not His own, His spotless soul,
With bitter anguish tore.
4 We held Him as condemned of heaven,
An outcast from His God;
While for our sins He groaned, He bled,
Beneath His Father's rod.
5 His sacred Blood hath washed our souls
From sin's polluting stain;
His stripes have healed us, and His Death
Revived our souls again.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
In ruin’s fatal road:
On Him were our transgressions laid;
He bore the mighty load.
7 He died to bear the guilt of men,
That sin might be forgiven:
He lives to bless them and defend,
And plead their cause in heaven. Topics: Passion Week; Lent, Sixth Sunday; Passion Week Scripture: Isaiah 53 Used With Tune: CHESHIRE
The Saviour comes! no outward pomp
Save Me, O God, the Swelling Floods
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 37 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Save me, O God, the swelling floods
Break in upon my soul;
I sink, and sorrows o’er my head
Like mighty waters roll.
2. I cry till all my voice be gone,
In tears I waste the day:
My God, behold my longing eyes,
And shorten Thy delay.
3. They hate my soul without a cause,
And still their number grows
More than the hairs around my head,
And mighty are my foes.
4. ’Twas then I paid that dreadful debt
That men could never pay,
And gave those honors to Thy law
Which sinners took away.
5. Thus in the great Messiah’s name,
The royal prophet mourns;
Thus he awakes our hearts to grief,
And gives us joy by turns.
6. Now shall the saints rejoice, and find
Salvation in My name;
For I have borne their heavy load
Of sorrow, pain, and shame.
7. Grief, like a garment, clothed Me round,
And sackcloth was My dress,
While I procured for naked souls
A robe of righteousness.
8. Amongst My brethren and the Jews
I like a stranger stood,
And bore their vile reproach, to bring
The Gentiles near to God.
9. I came in sinful mortals’ stead,
To do My Father’s will;
Yet when I cleansed My Father’s house,
They scandalized My zeal.
10. My fasting and My holy groans
Were made the drunkard’s song;
But God, from His celestial throne,
Heard My complaining tongue.
11. He saved Me from the dreadful deep,
Nor let My soul be drowned;
He raised and fixed My sinking feet
On well-established ground.
12. ’Twas in a most accepted hour
My prayer arose on high;
And for My sake my God shall hear
The dying sinner’s cry. Used With Tune: CHESHIRE Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
