Religion can assuage the tempest of the soul
Now let the Lord my Saviour smile
Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: Support and Comfort under Afflictions Lyrics: 1 Now let the Lord my Saviour smile,
And shew my Name upon his Heart;
I would forget my Pains a while,
And in the Pleasure lose the Smart.
2 But, oh! it swells my Sorrows high
To see my blessed Jesus frown;
My Spirits sink, my Comforts die,
And all the Springs of Love are down.
3 Yet why, my Soul, why these Complaints?
Still while he frowns his Bowels move;
Still on his Heart he bears his Saints,
And feels their Sorrows and his Love.
4 My Name is printed on his Breast;
His Book of Life contains my Name;
I'd rather have it there imprest,
Than in the bright Records of Fame.
5 When the last Fire burns all Things here,
Those Letters shall securely stand,
And in the Lamb's fair Book appear,
Writ by th' Eternal Father's Hand.
6 Now shall my Minutes smoothly run,
Whilst here I wait my Father's Will;
My rising and my setting Sun
Roll gently up and down the Hill.
Now let the Lord my Saviour smile

The Eternal God his People's Refuge and Support
Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: God His people's refuge and support First Line: Behold the great eternal God Lyrics: 1 Behold the great eternal God,
Spreads everlasting arms abroad,
And calls our souls to shelter there.
Wonders of mingled pow'r and grace,
To all his Israel he displays,
Guarded from danger, and from fear.
2 Thither my feeble soul shall fly,
When terrors press, and death is nigh,
And there will I delight to dwell:
On that high tow'r I rear my head,
Serene, nor knows my heart to dread,
Amidst surrounding hosts of hell.
3 The shadow of th' Almighty's wings
Composure unmolested brings,
While threat'ning horrors round me croad;
In vain the storms of rattling hail
The walls of this retreat assail,
And the wild tempest roars aloud.
4 In louder strains my fearless tongue
Shall warble its victorious song,
My Father's graces to proclaim;
He bears his infant offspring on
To glory radiant as his throne,
And joys eternal as his name. Scripture: Deuteronomy 33:27
The Eternal God his People's Refuge and Support
Whence do our mournful thoughts arise?
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Topics: Comfort and support in God; Counsel and support from God; Support and counsel from God Lyrics:
Whence do our mournful thoughts arise?
And where's our courage fled?
Have restless sin and raging hell
Struck all our comforts dead?
Have we forgot th' almighty name
That formed the earth and sea?
And can an all-creating arm
Grow weary or decay?
Treasures of everlasting might
In our Jehovah dwell;
He gives the conquest to the weak
And treads their foes to hell.
Mere mortal power shall fade and die,
And youthful vigor cease:
But we that wait upon the Lord
Shall feel our strength increase.
The saints shall mount on eagles' wings,
And taste the promised bliss,
Till their unwearied feet arrive
Where perfect pleasure is.
Scripture: Isaiah 40:27-30
Whence do our mournful thoughts arise?
There is a land of pure delight
Appears in 1,418 hymnals Topics: Life, Death and a future State The Prospect of Heaven a Support in Death Lyrics: 1 There is a Land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign;
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never-fading flowers;
Death, like a narrow Sea, divides
This heavenly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields, beyond the swelling flood,
Stand dress'd in living green;
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan roll'd between.
4 But fearful mortals start, and shrink,
To cross the narrow sea;
And linger, shiv'ring, on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
5 Oh! could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy doubts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love,
With unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the landscape o'er —
Not Jordan's streams, nor death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.
There is a land of pure delight
