Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #227a (1790) Topics: Resignation; Resignation First Line: O thou whose grace and justice reign Lyrics: 1 O thou whose grace and justice reign
Enthron'd above the skies,
To thee our hearts would tell their pain,
To thee we lift our eyes.
2 As servants watch their master's hand,
And fear the angry stroke!
Or maids before their mistress stand,
And wait a peaceful look:
3 So for our sins we justly feel
Thy discipline, O God;
Yet wait the gracious moment still,
Till thou remove thy rod.
4 Those that in wealth and pleasure live,
Our daily groans deride,
And thy delays of mercy give
Fresh courage to their pride.
5 Our foes insult us, but our hope
In thy compassion lies;
This thought shall bear our spirits up,
That God will not despise. Scripture: Psalm 123 Languages: English

Father! whate'er of earthly bliss
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #344 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1. Father! whate’er of earthly bliss
Thy sovereign hand denies,
Accepted at Thy throne of grace,
Let this petition rise:
2 Give me a calm and thankful heart,
From every murmur free;
The blessing of Thy grace impart,
And make me live to Thee.
3 Let the sweet hope that Thou art mine
My life and death attend;
Thy presence through my journey shine,
And crown my journey’s end. Languages: English
Father! whate'er of earthly bliss
Must Jesus bear the cross alone
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #345 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone,
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for every one,
And there's a cross for me.
2 How happy are the saints above,
Who once went sorrowing here;
But now they taste unmingled love,
And joy without a tear.
3 The consecrated cross I'll bear,
Till death shall set me free,
And then go home my crown to wear,
For there's a crown for me.
4 Upon the crystal pavement, down
At Jesus' piercéd feet,
Joyful I'll cast my golden crown,
And His dear name repeat.

Must Jesus bear the cross alone
Thy way, not mine, O Lord
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #347 (1870) Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
However dark it be!
Lead me by Thine own hand;
Choose out the path for me.
2 Smooth let it be, or rough,
It still will be the best;
Winding or straight, it leads
Right onward to Thy rest.
3 I dare not choose my lot:
I would not, if I might;
Choose Thou for me, my God,
So shall I walk aright.
4 The kingdom that I seek
Is Thine: so let the way
That leads to it be Thine,
Else I must surely stray.
5 Choose Thou for me my friends,
My sickness or my health;
Choose Thou my cares for me,
My poverty or wealth.
6 Not mine, not mine the choice,
In things or great or small;
Be Thou my Guide, my Strength,
My Wisdom, and my All. Languages: English
Thy way, not mine, O Lord
O Lord, how full of sweet content
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #349 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how full of sweet content
Our years of pilgrimage are spent!
Where'er we dwell, we dwell with Thee,
In heaven, in earth, or on the sea.
2 To us remains nor place nor time;
Our country is in every clime!
We can be calm and free from care
On any shore, since God is there.
3 While place we seek, or place we shun,
The soul finds happiness in none;
But with our God to guide our way,
'Tis equal joy to go or stay.
4 Could we be cast where Thou art not,
That were indeed a dreadful lot;
But regions none remote we call,
Secure of finding God in all. Languages: English
O Lord, how full of sweet content
My faith looks up to Thee
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #364 (1870) Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire!
3 While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my Guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
wipe sorrow’s tears away;
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransom'd soul! Languages: English
My faith looks up to Thee
My spirit on Thy care
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #365 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 My spirit on Thy care,
Blest Saviour, I recline;
Thou wilt not leave me to despair,
For Thou art Love divine.
2 In Thee I place my trust,
On Thee I calmly rest:
I know Thee good, I know Thee just,
And count Thy choice the best.
3 Whate'er events betide,
Thy will they all perform;:
Safe in Thy breast my head I hide,
Nor fear the coming storm.
4 Let good or ill befall,
It must be good for me;
Secure of having Thee in all,
Of having all in Thee. Languages: English
My spirit on Thy care
I look to Jesus, and the face
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #372 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation; Resignation Lyrics: 1 I look to Jesus, and the face
Of God is turn'd on me in love,
I feel a Father's fond embrace,
And all my doubts and fears remove.
2 I look to Jesus, and behold!
My heart is lighten'd of its cares,
My love for earthly things grows cold,
And pleasure vainly spreads her snares.
3 I look to Jesus, and the sight
Of all that He endured for me,
Makes e'en my greatest sufferings light,
Compared with His deep agony.
4 I look to Jesus when my zeal
And faith and love grow dead and cold;
Then doth He Calvary reveal,
And makes me in His service bold.
5 Thus let me, Lord, while life doth last,
In faith look ever up to Thee,
And when life's sinful days are past
I shall Thy face in glory see. Languages: English
I look to Jesus, and the face
