'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them, Lord, to thee

Author: Henry Montague Butler (1833-1918) Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #518 (2008) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Despair and Trouble Lyrics: 1 'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them, Lord, to thee; here at thy feet none other may we see: 'Lift up your hearts!' Even so, with one accord, we lift them up, we lift them to the Lord. 2 Above the level of the former years, the mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears, the mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay, O Lord of light, lift all our hearts to-day. 3 Lift every gift that thou thyself hast given: low lies the best till lifted up to heaven; low lie the bounding heart, the teeming brain, till, sent from God, they mount to God again. 4 Then, as the trumpet-call in after years, 'Lift up your hearts!' rings pealing in our ears, still shall those hearts respond with full accord, 'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord.' Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:52 Languages: English Tune Title: WOODLANDS

How long, O Lord, will you forget

Author: Barbara Woollett (b. 1937) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #527 (2013) Topics: Despair and Trouble Lyrics: 1 How long, O Lord, will you forget an answer to my prayer? No tokens of your love I see, your face is turned away from me; I wrestle with despair. 2 How long, O Lord, will you forsake and leave me in this way? When will you come to my relief? My heart is overwhelmed with grief, by evil night and day. 3 How long, O Lord — but you forgive, with mercy from above. I find that all your ways are just, I learn to praise you and to trust in your unfailing love. Scripture: Psalm 13 Languages: English Tune Title: [How long, O Lord, will you forget]

Lord, if faith is disenchanted

Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #528 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Despair and Trouble Lyrics: 1 Lord, if faith is disenchanted, if our pain persists too long, show us that your love is planted deeper far than all time's wrong. 2 If we feel ourselves forsaken, overwhelmed by sin and grief, prove your love, though faith is shaken, deeper than our unbelief. 3 Where injustice and oppression make the poor and weak despair, prove your love's profound compassion, deeper than their deepest prayer. 4 When the children, Lord, are dying, anguished parents asking, 'Why?', prove your love, in grief and crying, deeper than grief's deepest cry. 5 Let the cross, your love's perfection, present with us all along, prove itself, in resurrection, deeper far than all time's wrong.
