Distress of Soul

Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: Mine eyes and my desire Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes and my desire Are ever to the Lord. I love to plead his promises, And rest upon his word. 2 Turn, turn thee to my soul, Bring thy salvation near; When will thy hand release my feet Out of the deadly snare. 3 When shall the sov'reign grace Of my forgiving God Restore me from those dang'rous ways My wand'ring feet have trod! 4 The tumult of my thoughts Doth but increase my woe; My spirit languishes, my heart Is desolate and low. 5 With ee'ry morning light My sorrow new begins; Look on my anguish and my pain, And pardon all my sins. Scripture: Psalm 25

Author: Dr. Watts Appears in 198 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: My drowsy pow'rs, why sleep ye so Lyrics: 1 My drowsy pow'rs, why sleep ye so Awake, my sluggish soul! Nothing has half thy work to do, Yet nothing's half so dull. 2 The little ants for one poor grain Labour, and tug, and strive; Yet we, who have a heav'n t'obtain, How negligent we live! 3 We, for whose sake all nature stands, And stars their courses move; We, for whose guard the angel bands Come flying from above: 4 We, for whom God the Son came down And labour'd for our good, How careless to secure that crown He purchas'd with jis blood! 5 Lord, shall we lie so sluggish still, And never act our parts! Come, holy Dove, from th' heav'nly hill, Renew and warm our hearts. 6 Then shall our active spirits move, Upward our soul shall rise; With hands of faith and wings of love, We'll fly and take the prize.

The stony Heart

Appears in 280 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: O! for a glance of heav'nly day Lyrics: 1 O! for a glance of heav'nly day, To take this stubborn heart away; And thaw with beams of love divine, This heart, this frozen heart of mine. 2 The rocks can rent; the earth can quake, The seas can roar; the mountains shake; Of feeling all things show some sign, But this unfeeling heart of mine. 3 To hear the sorrows thou hast felt, Dear Lord an adamant would melt: But I can reach each moving line, And nothing moves this heart of mine. 4 Thy judgments too, unmov'd I hear, (Amazing thought!) which devils fear: Goodness and wrath in vain combine, To stir this stupid heart of mine. 5 But something yet can do the deed, And that dear something much I need: O! may thy Spirit now refine, From dross, and melt this heart of mine.
