My heart is resting, O my God

Author: A. L. Waring Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 94 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:24 Lyrics: My heart is resting, O my God, — I will give thanks and sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. Now the frail vessel Thou hast made No hand but Thine shall fill — For the waters of the Earth have failed, And I am thirsty still. I thirst for springs of heavenly life, And here all day they rise — I seek the treasure of Thy love, And close at hand it lies. And a new song is in my mouth To long loved music set — Glory to Thee for all the grace I have not tasted yet. Glory to Thee for strength withheld, For want and weakness known — And the fear that sends me to Thy breast For what is most my own. I have a heritage of joy That yet I must not see; But the hand that bled to make it mine Is keeping it for me. There is a certainty of love That sets my heart at rest — A calm assurance for today That to be poor is best — A prayer reposing on His truth Who hath made all things mine, That draws my captive will to Him, And makes it one with Thine. I will give thanks for suffering now, For want and toil and loss — For the death that sin makes hard and slow, Upon my Savior's cross — Thanks for the little spring of love That gives me strength to say, If they will leave me part in Him, Let all things pass away. Sometimes I long for promised bliss, But it will not come too late — And the songs of patient spirits rise From the place wherein I wait; While in the faith that makes no haste My soul has time to see A kneeling host of Thy redeemed, In fellowship with me. There is a multitude around Responsive to my prayer; I hear the voice of my desire Resounding everywhere. But the earnest of eternal joy, In every prayer I trace; I see the glory of the Lord: On every chastened face. How oft, in still communion known, Those spirits have been sent To share the travail of my soul, Or show me what it meant! And I long to do some work of love No spoiling hand could touch, For the poor and suffering of Thy flock Who comfort me so much. But the yearning thought is mingled now With the thankful song I sing; For Thy people know the secret source Of every precious thing. The heart that ministers for Thee In Thy own work will rest; And the subject spirit of a child Can serve Thy children best. Mine be the reverent, listening love, That waits all day on Thee, With the service of a watchful heart Which no one else can see — The faith that, in a hidden way No other eye may know, Finds all its daily work prepared, And loves to have it so. My heart is resting, O my God, My heart is in Thy care — I hear the voice of joy and health Resounding everywhere. “Thou art my portion,” saith my soul, Ten thousand voices say, And the music of their glad Amen, Will never die away.

Whate'er My God Ordains is right

Author: Samuel Rodigast; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23 Lyrics: 1 Whate'er my God ordains is right: his holy will abideth; I will be still, whate'er he doth, and follow where he guideth. He is my God; though dark my road, he holds me that I shall not fall: wherefore to him I leave it all. 2 Whate'er my God ordains is right: he never will deceive me; he leads me by the proper path; I know he will not leave me. I take, content, what he hath sent; his hand can turn my griefs away, and patiently I wait his day. 3 Whate'er my God ordains is right: though now this cup, in drinking, may bitter seem to my faint heart, I take it, all unshrinking. My God is true; each morn anew sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart, and pain and sorrow shall depart. 4 Whate'er my God ordains is right: here shall my stand be taken; though sorrow, need, or death be mine, yet am I not forsaken. My Father's care is round me there; he holds me that I shall not fall: and so to him I leave it all.

Divine Mercies in constant Succession

Author: Dr. S. Stennett Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23 First Line: How various and how new Lyrics: 1 How various and how new Are thy compassions, Lord! Each morning shall thy mercies shew, Each night thy truth record. 2 Thy goodness, like the sun, Dawn'd on our early days, Ere infant-reason had begun To form our lips to praise. 3 Each object we beheld Gave pleasure to our eyes; And nature all our senses held In bands of sweet surprise. 4 But pleasures more refin'd Awaited that bless'd day, When light arose upon our mind, And chas'd our sins away. 5 How new thy mercies then! How sovereign and how free! Our souls that had been dead in sin, Were made alive to thee. Pause. 6 Now we expect a day Still brighter far than this, When death shall bear our souls away To realms of light and bliss. 7 There rapturous scenes of joy Shall burst upon our sight: And every pain, and tear, and sigh, Be drown'd in endless night. 8 Beneath thy balmy sing, O sun of righteousness, Our happy souls shall sit and sing The wonders of thy grace. 9 Nor shall that radiant day So joyfully begun, In evening shadows die away, Beneath the setting sun. 10 How various and how new Are thy compassions, Lord! Eternity thy love shall shew, And all thy truth record. Topics: Time and Eternity; Mercies constant succession

Where else for succor can we flee, Or in whose strength confide? 2 Thou art our portion here below, Our promised bliss above; Ne'er may our souls an object know So precious as thy love. 3 When heart and flesh, O Lord, shall fail, Thou wilt our spirits cheer; Support us through life's thorny vale, And calm each anxious fear.

We thank him that he calls us to life and health anew; whatever now befalls us his care will still be true. 2 O Israel's guardian, hear us, Watch o'er us this day; in all we do be near us. For others, too, we pray; to you we would commend them, our Church, our youth, our land; direct them and defend them when dangers are at hand. 3 O grant us peace and gladness, give us our daily bread, shield us from grief and sadness, on us your blessings shed. Grant that our whole behaviour in truth and righteousness may praise you, Lord, our Saviour, whose holy name we bless. 4 You are our vine: O nourish your branches, so that we may grow in you and flourish and ever fruitful be; your Spirit pour within us, and let the gifts of grace to those good actions win us that best may show your praise.

God the Soul's Only Portion

Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:24 First Line: In vain the world's alluring smile Lyrics: I. In vain, the world's alluring smile Would my unwary heart beguile: Deluding world! its brightest day, Dream of a moment, fleets away! II. Earth's highest pleasures, could they last, Would pall and languish on the taste; Such airy chaff was ne'er design'd To feed th'immortal, craving mind. III. To nobler bliss my soul aspires, Come, Lord, and fill these vast desires; Be thou my portion, here I rest, Since of my utmost wish possest. IV. O let thy sacred word impart Its sealing influence to my heart; With pow'r, and light, and love divine, Assure my soul that thou art mine. V. The blissful word, with joy replete, Shall bid my gloomy fears retreat, And heav'n-born hope, serenely bright, Shine chearful thro' this mortal night. VI. Then shall my joyful spirit rise On wings of faith above the skies; And when these transient scenes are o'er, And this vain world shall tempt no more: VII. O may I reach the blissful plains, Where thy unclouded glory reigns, And dwell forever near thy throne In joys to mortal thought unknown.
