Desertion and Hope; or, Complaint of Absence from Public Worship

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XLIIa (1780) First Line: With earnest longings of the mind Lyrics: 1 With earnest longings of the mind, My God, to thee I look; So pants the hunted hart to find And taste the cooling brook. 2 When shall I see thy courts of grace, And meet my God again? So long an absence from thy face My heart endures with pain. 3 Temptations vex my weary soul, And tears are my repast; The foe insults without controul, "And where's your God at last?" 4 'Tis with a mournful pleasure now I think on ancient days: Then to thy house did numbers go, And all our work was praise. 5 But why's my soul sunk down so far Beneath this heavy load? Why do my thoughts indulge despair, And sin against my God? 6 Hope in the Lord whose mighty hand, Can all thy woes remove; For I shall yet before him stand, And sing restoring love. Scripture: Psalm 42:1-5 Languages: English
