How long will your forget me, Lord

Author: Christopher Idle, 1938- Hymnal: The Book of Praise #6 (1997) First Line: How long will you forget me, Lord Lyrics: 1 How long will you forget me, Lord, and hide your face away? How long shall evils tear my heart and troubles fill my day? 2 Look on my need, O Lord my God who grants my every breath; give light that I may see your light, nor sleep the sleep of death. 3 Look on their threats and hear my cry, and answer when I call, or they will claim the victory who long to see me fall. 4 But since I trust your constant love, my heart is glad and free to sing the praises of the lord whose grace has rescued me.

Lord God, my Saviour, day and night

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P88 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord God, my Saviour, day and night before thee cried have I. 2 Before thee let my prayer come; give ear unto my cry. 3 For troubles great do fill my soul; my life draws night the grave. 4 I'm counted with those that go down to death, and no strength have. 5 Free midst the dead, like to the slain that in the grave do lie; cut off from thy hand, whom no more thou hast in memory. 6 Thou hast me laid in lowest pit, in deeps and darksome caves; 7 thy wrath lies hard on me, thou hast me pressed with all they waves. 8 Thou hast put far from me my friends, made me their scorn to know; and I am so shut up that I no longer forth can go. 9 By reason of my deep distress, mine eye doth waste away; to thee, Lord, I call, and stretch my hands out every day. 10 Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall they rise and thee bless? 11 Shall in the grave thy love be told? in death thy faithfulness? 12 Shall thy great wonders in the dark, or shall thy righteousness be known to any in the land of deep forgetfulness? 13 But, Lord, to thee I cried; my prayer at morn shall come to thee. 14 Why, Lord, dost thou cast off my soul, and hide thy face from me? 15 Distressed am I, and from my youth I ready am to die, thy terrors I have borne, and am distracted fearfully. 16 By thy fierce wrath I'm overwhelmed, cut off by dread of thee; 17 like floods thy terrors round me close, all day they compass me. 18 My friends thou hast put far from me, and him that did me love; and those that mine acquaintance were to darkness didst remove.
