Thou Man of griefs, remember me

Hymnal: A Pocket Hymn Book #HXII (1791) Topics: Convinced of Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Thou Man of griefs, remember me, Who never canst thyself forget! Thy last, mysterious agony, Thy fainting pangs, and bloody sweat! 2 When wrestling in the strength of pray'r, Thy spirit sunk beneath its load; Thy feebled flesh abhorr'd to bear The wrath of an almighty God. 3 Father, if I may call thee so, Regard my fearful heart's desire! Remove this load of guilty woe, Nor let me in my sins expire! 4 I tremble, lest the wrath divine, Which bruises now my wretched soul, Should bruise this wretched soul of mine, Long as eternal ages roll. 5 To thee my last distress I bring! The heighten'd fear of death I find; The tyrant, brandishing his sting, Appears, and hell is close behind. 6 I deprecate that death alone, That endless banishment from thee: O save, and give me to thy Son, Who trembl'd, wept, and bled for me.

Assurance for Evil Days

Hymnal: The Psalter #21 (1912) Topics: Backsliding First Line: O Lord, be Thou my helper true Lyrics: 1 O Lord, be Thou my helper true, For just and godly men are few; The faithful who can find? From truth and wisdom men depart, With flatt'ring lips and double heart They speak their evil mind. 2 The lips that speak, the truth to hide, The tongues of arrogance and pride, That boastful words employ, False-speaking tongues that boast their might, That own no law, that know no right, Jehovah will destroy. 3 Because the poor are sore oppressed, Because the needy are distressed, And bitter are their cries, The Lord will be their helper strong; To save them from contempt and wrong Jehovah will arise. 4 Jehovah's promises are sure, His words are true, His words are pure As silver from the flame. Tho' base men walk on ev'ry side, His saints are safe, whate'er betide, Protected by His Name. Scripture: Psalm 12 Languages: English Tune Title: BREMEN

Pause. 6 Behold the Hosts of Hell, How cruel is their Hate? Against my Life they rise, and join Their Fury with Deceit. 7 O keep my Soul from Death, Nor put my Hope to Shame; For I have plac'd my only Trust In my Redeemer's Name. 8 With humble Faith I wait To see thy Face again; Of Isr'el it shall ne'er be said, He sought the Lord in vain.
