Why should a living man complain

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 53 hymnals Topics: Pleading with God under affliction Lyrics: 1 Why should a living man complain Of deep distress within, Since every sigh, and every pain, Is but the fruit of sin? 2 No, Lord, I'll patiently submit, Nor ever dare rebel; Yet sure I may, here at thy feet, My painful feelings tell. 3 Thou seest what floods of sorrow rise, And beat upon my soul; One trouble to another cries, Billows on billows roll, 4 From fear to hope, and hope to fear, My shipwreck'd soul is tost; Till I am tempted, in despair, To give up all for lost. 5 Yet through the stormy clouds I'll look, Once more to thee, my God: O fix my soul upon a rock, Beyond the gaping flood. 6 One look of mercy from thy face Will set my heart at ease; One all-commanding word of grace, Will make the tempest cease.

I love the Lord; he heard my cries

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 199 hymnals Topics: God delivereth his saints from affliction Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord; he heard my cries, And pity'd ev'ry groan: Long as I live, when troubles rise, I’ll hasten to his throne. 2 I love the Lord; he bow'd his ear, And chas'd my griefs away: O let my heart no more despair While I have breath to pray! 3 Among the saints that fill thine house, My off'ring shall be paid; There shall my zeal perform the vows My soul in anguish made. 4 The Lord beheld me sore distrest; He bade my pains remove: Return, my soul, to God, thy rest; For thou hast known his love.

When Abrah'm, full of sacred awe

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 74 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 When Abrah'm, full of sacred awe, Before Jehovah stood, And with an humble fervent pray'r, For guilty Sodom sued; 2 With what success, what wondrous grace, Was his petitions crown'd! The Lord would spare, if in the place Ten righteous men were found. 3 And could a single, pious soul So rich a boon obtain? Good God! and shall a nation cry, And plead with thee in vain? 4 Are not the righteous dear to thee, Now, as in ancient times? Or does this sinful land exceed Gomorrah in its crimes! 5 Still are we thine, we bear thy name, Here yet is thine abode. Long has thy presence blest our land: Forsake us not, O God! 6 O may our people, rulers, priests, Thy choicest blessings share; And know thee by that glorious name, "The God who heareth pray'r!"
