I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be

Author: A. A. Procter Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #540 (1920) Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be A pleasant road; I do not ask that Thou wouldst take from me Aught of its load; 2 I do not ask that flowers always spring Beneath my feet; I know too well the poison and the sting Of things too sweet. 3 For one thing only, Lord, dear Lord, I plead: Lead me aright, Though strength should falter and though heart should bleed, Through peace to light. 4 I do not ask, O Lord, that Thou shouldst shed Full radiance here; Give but a ray of peace, that I may tread Without a fear. 5 I do not ask my cross to understand, My way to see; Better in darkness just to feel Thy hand, And follow Thee. 6 Joy is like restless day; but peace divine Like quiet night. Lead me, O Lord, till perfect day shall shine, Through peace to light. Languages: English Tune Title: SUBMISSION

Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish

Author: T. Moore Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #555 (1920) Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish; Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel: Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot heal. 2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure. 3 Here see the Bread of life; see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love; come ever knowing Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.
