All Your Anxiety

Come to the cross - each burden bearing, All your anxiety — leave it there. Refrain: All your anxiety, all your care, Bring to the mercy seat - leave it there; Never a burden He cannot bear, Never a friend like Jesus! 2 No other friend so swift to help you, No other friend so quick to hear; No other place to leave your burden, No other one to hear your prayer. [Refrain] 3 Come then at once - delay no longer! Heed His entreaty kind and sweet; You need not fear a disappointment - You shall find peace at the mercy seat.

When in the hours of lonely woe

Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 When in the hours of lonely woe I give my sorrow leave to flow, And anxious fear and dark distrust Weigh down my spirits to the dust; 2 When not e'en friendship's gentle aid Can heal the wounds the world has made O this shall check each rising sigh, That Jesus is forever nigh. 3 His counsels and upholding care My safety and my comfort are, And he shall guide me all my days, Till glory crown the work of grace. 4 Jesus, in whom but thee above Can I repose my trust, my love? And shall an earthly object be Loved in comparison with thee? Used With Tune: MELITA

Protect and Save, Me, O My God

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Comfort & Encouragement First Line: Protect and save me, O my God Lyrics: 1 Protect and save me, O my God, from those who seek my life; and set me high, secure, above the rising tide of strife. 2 The workers of iniquity against me lie in wait; though I am innocent, O LORD, they gather in their hate. 3 Now see their wickedness, O LORD; come to my help, I plead. LORD God of hosts, O Israel's God, rise, help me in my need. 4 My enemies with deadly rage renew their fierce attack. They think the LORD will not regard, but you will turn them back. 5 O God, my strength, on you I wait; to you for help I flee. My God with mercy will defend his own triumphantly. 6 O Lord our shield, let wickedness and pride be put to shame. Then all will know that you do rule, and all will fear your name. 7 Like dogs that prowl the city streets my foes slink back at night. They would devour my life like food, but God will win the fight. 8 When all the night of woe is past and morning dawns at length, then I will praise you, loving God, my refuge and my strength. Scripture: Psalm 59 Used With Tune: MANCHESTER Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

There is sweet rest for feet now weary

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 There is sweet rest for feet now weary, In the rugged, upward way; There is a morn when midnight dreary Shall be lost in perfect day. 2 For that blest morn our hearts our longing, When shall end earth's night of woe; When, thro' those pearly portals thronging, Mortal cares we'll leave below. 3 Soon to that city, bright, eternal, Weary pilgrims all shall go; Soon we shall rest in pastures vernal, Where life's waters ceaseless flow. 4 Father above, in mercy guide us To those mansions of the blest; Safe in the Rock of Ages hide us Till we gain our final rest.

When darkness gathers round thy way

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 When darkness gathers round thy way, As fall the shades of even; No star, with its mild, cheering ray, To chase the gloom, our fears allay, How sweet the light of heaven! 2 When toiling in the narrow way, By persecution driven, Beset with treacherous snares that lay To lead our wayward feet astray, How sweet the smiles of heaven! 3 When by earth's care and grief and woe The anguished heart is riven, And bitter tears of sorrow flow No soothing balm found here below, How sweet the joy of heaven! 4 And when our pilgrimage is o'er, The blessed promise given; When, borne on angels' wings we soar To meet the Saviour we adore, How sweet the home in heaven!
