Psalm 63

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #30 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: My God! permit my tongue Lyrics: 1 My God! permit my tongue This joy, to call thee mine; And let my early cries prevail To taste thy love divine. 2 My thirsty fainting soul Thy mercy doth implore; Not travelers, in desert lands, Can pant for water more. 3 For life, without thy love, No relish can afford; No joy can be compared to this, To serve and please the Lord. 4 In wakeful hours at night, I call my God to mind; I think how wise thy counsels are, And all thy dealings kind. 5 Since thou hast been my help, To thee my spirit flies; And, on thy watchful providence, My cheerful hope relies. 6 The shadow of thy wings My soul in safety keeps; I follow where my Father leads, And he supports my steps.

Retirement

Author: Mrs. Phoebe H. Brown Hymnal: Laudes Domini #31 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: I love to steal awhile away Lyrics: 1 I love to steal awhile away From every cumbering care, And spend the hours of setting day In humble, grateful prayer. 2 I love in solitude to shed The penitential tear, And all his promises to plead, Where none but God can hear. 3 I love to think on mercies past, And future good implore, And all my cares and sorrows cast On him whom I adore. 4 I love by faith to take a view Of brighter scenes in heaven; The prospect doth my strength renew, While here by tempests driven. 5 Thus, when life's toilsome day is o'er, May its departing ray Be calm as this impressive hour, And lead to endless day.

Prayer has power

Author: John A. Wallace Hymnal: Laudes Domini #32 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: There is an eye that never sleeps Lyrics: 1 There is an eye that never sleeps Beneath the wing of night; There is an ear that never shuts When sink the beams of light. 2 There is an arm that never tires, When human strength gives way; There is a love that never fails, When earthly loves decay. 3 That eye is fixed on seraph throngs; That arm upholds the sky; That ear is filled with angel songs; That love is throned on high. 4 But there's a power which man can wield When mortal aid is vain, That eye, that arm, that love to reach, That listening ear to gain. 5 That power is prayer, which soars on high, Through Jesus, to the throne; And moves the hand which moves the world, To bring salvation down!
