Though Troubles Assail Us
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #246 (2018) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Tribulation and Suffering First Line: Though troubles assail us and dangers affright Lyrics: 1 Though troubles assail us and dangers affright,
though friends should all fail us and foes all unite,
yet one thing secures us, whatever betide,
the promise assures us, "The Lord will provide."
2 The birds, without garner or storehouse, are fed;
from them let us learn to trust God for our bread.
His saints what is fitting shall ne'er be denied
so long as 'tis written, "The Lord will provide."
3 When Satan assails us to stop up our path,
and courage all fails us, we triumph by faith.
He cannot take from us, though oft he has tried,
this heart-cheering promise, "The Lord will provide."
4 No strength of our own and no goodness we claim;
yet, since we have known of the Savior's great name,
in this our strong tower for safety we hide:
the Lord is our power, "The Lord will provide." Scripture: Genesis 22:14 Languages: English Tune Title: JOANNA (ST. DENIO)
Though Troubles Assail Us
God is the refuge of his saints
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #292 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 God is the refuge of his saints,
When storms of sharp distress invade;
Ere we can offer our complaints,
Behold him present with his aid.
2 Let mountains from their seats be hurled
Down to the deep, and buried there,
Convulsions shake the solid world,
Our faith shall never yield to fear.
3 Loud may the troubled ocean roar;
In sacred peace our souls abide,
While ev'ry nation, ev'ry shore,
Trembles, and dreads the swelling tide.
4 There is a stream whose gentle flow
Supplies the city of our God;
Life, love, and joy, still gliding through,
And wat'ring our divine abode.
5 That sacred stream, thy holy Word,
Our grief allays, our fear controls;
Sweet peace thy promises afford,
And give new strength to fainting souls.
6 Zion enjoys her Monarch's love,
Secure against a threat'ning hour;
Nor can her firm foundations move,
Built on his truth, and armed with pow'r.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 46 Tune Title: WARD
God is the refuge of his saints
At even, when the sun was set
Author: Henry Twells Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #336 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 At even, when the sun was set,
The sick, O Lord, around thee lay;
O in what divers pains they met!
O with what joy they went away!
2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we,
Oppressed with various ills, draw near:
What if thy form we cannot see;
We know and feel that thou art here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel:
For some are sick, and some are sad,
And some have never loved thee well,
And some have lost the love they had;
4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin;
And they who fain would serve thee best
Are conscious most of wrong within.
5 O Saviour Christ, thou too art man,
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide.
6 Thy touch has still its ancient pow'r;
No word from thee can fruitless fall:
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in thy mercy heal us all.
Amen. Scripture: Mark 1:32 Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELUS

Many a tear."

Jordan passed."

Pass away."

Shame and reproach shall be,

Am I a soldier of the cross
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #481 (1961) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross,
A foll'wer of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own his cause,
Or blush to speak his Name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies
On flow'ry beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through bloody seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign:
Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by thy Word.
5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war,
Shall conquer, though they die;
They view the triumph from afar,
And seize it with their eye.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all thine armies shine
In robes of vict'ry through the skies,
The glory shall be thine.
Amen. Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:5 Languages: English Tune Title: MARLOW
Am I a soldier of the cross
Christian, dost thou see them
Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #483 (1961) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 Christian, dost thou see them
On the holy ground,
How the pow'rs of darkness
Rage thy steps around?
Christian, up and smite them,
Counting gain but loss,
In the strength that cometh
By the holy cross.
2 Christian, dost thou feel them,
How they work within,
Striving, tempting, luring,
Goading into sin?
Christian, never tremble;
Never be downcast;
Gird thee for the battle,
Watch and pray and fast.
3 Christian, dost thou hear them,
How they speak thee fair?
"Always fast and vigil?
Always watch and prayer?"
Christian, answer boldly,
"While I breathe I pray!"
Peace shall follow battle,
Night shall end in day.
4 Hear the words of Jesus:
"O my servant true:
Thou art very weary, -
I was weary too;
But that toil shall make thee
Some day all mine own,
And the end of sorrow
Shall be near my throne."
Amen. Scripture: Ephesians 6:11 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANDREW OF CRETE
Christian, dost thou see them
Sometimes a Light Surprises
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #487 (2018) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises
the Christian while he sings;
it is the Lord, who rises
with healing in his wings:
when comforts are declining,
he grants the soul again
a season of clear shining,
to cheer it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation
we sweetly then pursue
the theme of God’s salvation,
and find it ever new;
set free from present sorrow,
we cheerfully can say,
“Let the unknown tomorrow
bring with it what it may.”
3 It can bring with it nothing
but he will bear us through;
who gives the lilies clothing
will clothe his people too:
beneath the spreading heavens
no creature but is fed;
and he who feeds the ravens
will give his children bread.
4 Though vine nor fig tree neither
their wonted fruit should bear,
though all the field should wither,
nor flocks nor herds be there;
yet God the same abideth,
his praise shall tune my voice,
for, while in him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Scripture: 2 Samuel 23:4-5 Languages: English Tune Title: BENTLEY
