Or unto an idol our hands spread abroad,
Shall not the Almighty uncover this sin?

Rise, help and redeem us, Thy mercy we trust;
Rise, help and redeem us, Thy mercy we trust.
2 We all the day long for Thy sake are consumed,
Defeated and helpless, to death we are doomed;
They why dost Thou tarry? Jehovah, awake,
Nor spurn us for ever; arise for our sake. [Chorus]

Forgetting our burden of grief and disgrace?
Our soul is bowed down, yea, we cleave to the dust;
Rise, help and redeem us, Thy mercy we trust. [Chorus] Scripture: Psalm 44 Used With Tune: MAGNUS

Though but loss be his reward.

Nor with bribes pollute his hand;
He who thus his life shall frame
Shall unmoved forever stand.

The Martyr Church
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Judgments On the Righteous; The Righteous Forsaken by God First Line: Thou, Lord, hast forsaken, to shame brough our boasts Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, hast forsaken, to shame brought our boasts;
No more to the field dost Thou go with out hosts;
Thou turnest us back from the foe in dismay,
And spoilers who hate us have made us their prey.
2 Like sheep to the slaughter Thy people are giv'n,
Dispersed through the nations afar we are driv'n;
Thou sellest Thy people to strangers for naught,
Their price to Thy treasure no increase has brought.
3 Thou makest our neighbors reproach us in pride,
And those that are near us to scoff and deride;
A byword the nations have made of our name,
With scorn and derision they put us to shame.
4 Yea, all the day long I behold my disgrace,
And covered am I with confusion of face;
The voice of blasphemers and scoffers I hear,
The foe and avenger against me appear.
5 All this have we suffered,and never forgot
To serve Thee, Jehovah, nor falsely have wrought;
Our heart is not turned and our steps have not strayed,
Tho' crushed amid ruins and under death's shade. Scripture: Psalm 44 Used With Tune: GOOD SHEPHERD

Will grant thy heart's request;
To Him commit thy way in faith,
To Him commit thy way in faith,
And thus thou shalt be blessed.
3 And He shall make your righteousness
Shine brightly as the light,
And as the burning noonday sun,
And as the burning noonday sun
Thy judgment shall be bright.
4 Rest in the Lord with quiet trust,
Wait patiently for Him;
Tho' wickedness triumphant seem,
Tho' wickedness triumphant seem,
Let not thy faith grow dim. Scripture: Psalm 37 Used With Tune: MORRIS CHANT
The Secret of Tranquillity
Come, O Thou Traveller unknown
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 294 hymnals Topics: Sun Of Righteousness Lyrics: 1 Come, O Thou Traveller unknown,
Whom still I hold, but cannot see!
My company before is gone,
And I am left alone with Thee;
With Thee all night I mean to stay,
And wrestle till the break of day.
2 I need not tell Thee who I am,
My misery and sin declare;
Thyself hast called me by my name,
Look on Thy hands, and read it there;
But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou?
Tell me Thy name, and tell me now.
3 In vain Thou strugglest to get free,
I never will unloose my hold!
Art Thou the man that died for me?
The secret of Thy love unfold;
Wrestling, I will not let Thee go,
Till I Thy name, Thy nature know.
4 Wilt Thou not yet to me reveal
Thy new, unutterable name?
Tell me, I still beseech Thee, tell;
To know it now resolved I am;
Wrestling, I will not let Thee go,
Till I Thy name, Thy nature know.
5 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! Thou diest for me!
I hear Thy whisper in my heart;
The morning breaks, the shadows flee,
Pure, universal love Thou art:
To me, to all, Thy mercies move,
Thy nature and Thy name is Love. Used With Tune: CAREY'S
Come, O Thou Traveller unknown
