Complaint of heavy Afflictions in Mind and Body
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #252 (1786) Topics: Hope in darkness; Hope in darkness First Line: My righteous Judge, my gracious God Lyrics: 1 My righteous Judge, my gracious God,
Hear when I spread my hands abroad,
And cry for succour from thy throne,
O make thy truth and mercy known.
2 Let judgment not against me pass:
Behold thy servant pleads thy grace;
Should justice call us to thy bar,
No man alive is guiltless there.
3 Look down in pity, Lord, and see
The mighty woes that burthen me;
Down to the dust my life is brought,
Like one long bury'd and forgot.
4 I dwell in darkness and unseen,
My heart is desolate within:
My thoughts in musing silence trace
The antient wonders of thy grace.
5 Thence I derive a glimpse of hope
To bear my sinking spirits up;
I stretch my hands to God again,
And thirst like parched lands for rain.
6 For thee I thirst, I pray, I mourn;
When will thy smiling face return?
Shall all my joys on earth remove,
And God forever hide his love?
7 My God, thy long delay to save,
Will sink thy prisoner to the grave;
My heart grows faint, and dim mine eye;
Make haste to help before I die.
8 The night is witness to my tears,
Distressing pains, distressing fears;
Oh might I hear thy morning voice,
How would my weary powers rejoice!
9 In thee I trust, to thee I sigh,
And lift my weary soul on high;
For thee sit waiting all the day,
And wear the tiresome hours away.
10 Break off my fetters, Lord, and show
The paths in which my feet should go:
If snares and foes beset the road,
I'll flee to hide me near my God.
11 Teach me to do thy holy will,
And lead me to thy heavenly hill:
Let the good spirit of thy love
Conduct me to thy courts above.
12 Then shall my soul no more complain,
The tempter then shall rage in vain;
And flesh that was my foe before,
Shall never vex my spirit more. Scripture: Psalm 143 Languages: English

In which is perfect day.

A path, though thorny, bright;

And God himself is light. Scripture: 1 John 1:7 Tune Title: MANOAH

Complaint of heavy Afflictions in Mind and Body
George Fox
Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: Worship in Song #272 (1996) Topics: Darkness First Line: There's a light that is shining in the heart of a man Refrain First Line: Walk in the light, wherever you may be Lyrics: 1 There's a light that is shining in the heart of a man,
It's the light that was shining when the world began,
There's a light that is shining in the Turk and the Jew
And a light that is shining, friend, in me and in you.
Refrain:
Walk in the light, wherever you may be,
Walk in the light, wherever you may be!
"In my old leather breeches and my shaggy, shaggy locks,
I am walking in the glory of the light," said Fox!
2 "With a book and a steeple, with a bell and a key
They would bind it forever but they can't," said he.
"Oh, the book it will perish and the steeple will fall
But the light will be shining at the end of it all."
3 "If we give you a pistol, will; you fight for the Lord?"
"But you can't kill the Devil with a gun or sword!"
"Will you swear on the Bible?" "I will not!" said he,
"For the truth is more holy than the book, to me." [Refrain]
4 There's an ocean of darkness and I drown in the night
Till I come through the darkness to the ocean of light,
For the light is forever and the light it is free
"And I walk in the glory of the light," said he. [Refrain]
Tune Title: [There's a light that is shining in the heart of a man]

the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour.
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless,
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes.
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Scripture: Job 14:1 Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE
Abide With Me
Hark! A Thrilling Voice Is Sounding
Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #478 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Powers of Darkness First Line: Hark! A thrilling voice is sounding! Lyrics: 1 Hark! A thrilling voice is sounding!
"Christ is near," we hear it say.
"Cast away the works of darkness,
all you children of the day!"
2 Startled at the solemn warning,
from the darkness we arise;
Christ, our sun, all ill dispelling,
shines upon the morning skies.
3 See, the Lamb so long expected
comes with pardon down from heaven.
Let us haste, with tears of sorrow,
one and all, to be forgiven;
4 so when next he comes in glory
and the world is wrapped in fear,
he will shield us with his mercy
and with words of love draw near.
5 Honor, glory, might, dominion
to the Father and the Son,
with the everliving Spirit
while eternal ages run. Scripture: Luke 21:25-28 Languages: English Tune Title: MERTON
