No Longer, Lord, Despise Me

Author: Rev. Edward A. Collier Meter: 7.7.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Sorrow for Sin Lyrics: 1 No longer, Lord despise me, Nor in thy wrath chastise me, Thy mercy I implore. How long Thine anger cherish? Consumed thereby I perish; My soul is troubled sore. 2 To me, O Lord, returning, Save Thou, with pity yearning. Shall death Thy memory keep? Or shall the grave confess Thee? Or I give thanks and bless Thee, While day and night I weep? 3 The Lord will ever hear me, And when I pray be near me, To put my foes to shame; Turned back, no more to grieve me, They suddenly shall leave me. All glory to His Name! Scripture: Psalm 6 Used With Tune: PLEADING

I have no nope except in Thee; Let not ungodly men reproach, From all transgression set me free. 7 Because Thou didst it I was dumb, I spoke no word of rash complaint; Remove Thy stroke away from me, Beneath Thy chastisement I faint. 8 When Thou for his iniquity Rebukest and correctest man, His beauty is consumed away, How weak his strength, how vain his plan. 9 Lord, hear my prayer, regard my cry, I weep, be Thou my comforter; I am a stranger here below, A pilgrim as my fathers were. 10 O spare me, Lord, avert Thy wrath, Deal gently with me, I implore, That I may yet recover strength Ere I go hence and be no more. Scripture: Psalm 39 Used With Tune: BERA
