O God, How Good Thou Art

Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Doubt Lyrics: 1 O God, how good Thou art To all the pure of heart, Though life seems vain; Burdened with anxious care, I groped in dark despair, Till in Thy house of prayer All was made plain. 2 Ever, O Lord, with Thee, All shall be well with me, Held by Thy hand; And Thou wilt guide my feet By Thy own counsel sweet, Till I, for glory meet, In glory stand. 3 In earth or heaven above Who is there that I love Compared with Thee? My heart may faint with fears, But God my strength appears, And will to endless years My portion be. 4 O it is good that I May still to God draw nigh, As oft before; The Lord Jehovah blest, My refuge and my rest, Shall be in praise confessed Forevermore. Scripture: Psalm 73 Used With Tune: OLIVET

Spirt of God, Dwell Thou Within My Heart

Author: Rev. George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 347 hymnals Topics: Doubt First Line: Spirit of God, dwell Thou within my heart Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, dwell Thou within my heart; Wean it from earth, through all its pulses move; Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art, And make me love Thee as I ought to love. 2 I ask no dream, no prophet-ecstasies, No sudden rending of the veil of clay, No angel visitant, no opening skies; But take the dimness of my soul away. 3 Didst Thou not bid me love Thee, God and King? All, all Thine own, soul, heart, and strength, and mind. I see Thy cross– there teach my heart to cling; O let me seek Thee, and O let me find! 4 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh; Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear; To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer. 5 Teach me to love Thee as Thy angels love, One holy passion filling all my frame– The baptism of the heaven-descended Dove; My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.

Refrain: By and by, when the morning comes, when the saints of God are gathered home, we’ll tell the story, how we’ve overcome, for we’ll understand it better by and by. 2 We are often destitute of the things that life demands, want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands; we are trusting in the Lord, and according to the Word, we will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 3 Temptations, hidden snares, often take us unawares, and our hearts are made to bleed for any thoughtless word or deed; and we wonder why the test when we try to do our best, but we’ll understand it better by and by.

Lord, My Weak Though in Vain Would Climb

Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: Doubt First Line: Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb Lyrics: 1 Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb to search the starry vault profound; in vain would wing her flight sublime to find creation's utmost bound. 2 But weaker yet that thought must prove to search thy great eternal plan, thy sov'reign counsels, born of love long ages ere the world began. 3 When my dim reason would demand why that, or this, thou dost ordain, by some vast deep I seem to stand, whose secrets I must ask in vain. 4 When doubts disturb my troubled breast, and all is dark as night to me, here, as on solid rock, I rest that so it seemeth good to thee. 5 Be this my joy, that evermore thou rulest all things at thy will; thy sov'reign wisdom I adore, and calmly, sweetly, trust thee still.

Lead Us, O Father, in the Paths of Peace

Author: William H. Burleigh Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 157 hymnals Topics: Doubt Lyrics: 1 Lead us, O Father, in the paths of peace; without thy guiding hand we go astray, and doubts appall, and sorrows still increase; lead us through Christ, the true and living way. 2 Lead us, O Father, in the paths of truth; unhelped by thee, in error's maze we grope, while passion stains, and folly dims our youth, and age comes on, uncheered by faith and hope. 3 Lead us, O Father, in the paths of right; blindly we stumble when we walk alone, involved in shadows of a dark'ing night; only with thee we journey safely on. 4 Lead us, O Father, to thy heav'nly rest, however rough and steep the path may be, through joy or sorrows as thou deemest best, until our lives are perfected in thee.
