Complaint under the Temptation of Death

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #23 (1786) Topics: Complaint of temptation; Complaint of temptation First Line: How long wilt thou conceal thy face? Lyrics: 1 How long wilt thou conceal thy face? My God, how long delay? When shall I feel those heavenly rays That chase my fears away? 2 How long shall my poor labouring soul Wrestle and toil in vain? Thy word can all my foes controul, And ease my raging pain. 3 See how the Prince of darkness tries All his malicious arts; He spreads a mist around my eyes, And throws his fiery darts. 4 Be thou my son, and thou my shield, My soul in safety keep; Make haste before mine eyes are seal'd In death's eternal sleep. 5 How would the tempter boast aloud, Should I become his prey! Behold the sons of hell grow proud To see thy long delay. 6 But they shall fly at thy rebuke, And Satan hide his head; He knows the terrors of thy look, And hears thy voice with dread. 7 Thou wilt display that sovereign grace, Whence all my comforts spring; I shall employ my lips in praise, And thy salvation sing. Scripture: Psalm 13 Languages: English

Christ's earthly path

Hymnal: Laudes Domini #347 (1884) Topics: Christ Temptation of; Christ Temptation of; Temptation; Temptation; Christ Temptation of; Temptation First Line: O Lord, we now the path retrace Lyrics: 1 O Lord, we now the path retrace Which thou on earth hast trod, To man thy wondrous love and grace, Thy faithfulness to God! 2 Thy love, by man so sorely tried, Proves stronger than the grave; The very spear that pierced thy side Drew forth the blood to save. 3 Unmoved by Satan's subtle wiles, Or suffering, shame, and loss, Thy path, uncheered by earthly smiles, Led only to the cross. 4 O Lord, with sorrow and with shame, We meekly would confess, How little we, who bear thy name, Thy mind, thy ways, express. 5 Give us thy meek, thy lowly mind; We would obedient be, And all our rest and pleasure find In fellowship with thee.

Jesus' human life

Hymnal: Laudes Domini #798 (1884) Topics: Christ Temptation of; Christ Temptation of; Temptation; Temptation; Christ Temptation of; Temptation First Line: As oft with worn and weary feet Lyrics: 1 As oft with worn and weary feet, We tread earth’s rugged valley o’er, The thought, how comforting and sweet, Christ trod this very path before! Our wants and weaknesses he knows, From life’s first dawning to its close. 2 Does sickness, feebleness, or pain, Or sorrow in our path appear? The recollection will remain, More deeply did he suffer here; His life how truly sad and brief, Filled up with suffering and with grief. 3 If Satan tempt our hearts to stray, And whisper evil things within, So did he in the desert way Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin: When worn, and in a feeble hour, The tempter came with all his power. 4 Just such as I, this earth he trod, With every human ill but sin; And, though indeed the very God, As I am now, so he has been; My God, my Saviour, look on me With pity, love, and sympathy.
