With Firm Resolve I Held My Peace

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #75 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Old Year Lyrics: 1 With firm resolve I held my peace And spake not either bad or good, Lest I should utter sinful thoughts While wicked men before me stood. 2 While I was dumb my grief was stirred, My heart grew hot with thought suppressed; The while I mused the fire increased, Then to the Lord I made request. 3 Make me, O Lord, to know my end, Teach me the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am And turn from pride and sinful ways. 4 My time is nothing in Thy sight, Behold, my days are but a span; yea, truly at his best estate, A breath, a fleeting breath, is man. 5 Man's life is passed in vain desire If troubled years be spent for gain; He knows not whose his wealth shall be, And all his toil is but in vain. 6 And now, O Lord, what wait I for? I have no nope except in Thee; Let not ungodly men reproach, From all transgression set me free. 7 Because Thou didst it I was dumb, I spoke no word of rash complaint; Remove Thy stroke away from me, Beneath Thy chastisement I faint. 8 When Thou for his iniquity Rebukest and correctest man, His beauty is consumed away; How weak his strength, how vain his plan. 9 Lord, hear my prayer, regard my cry; I weep; be Thou my Comforter. I am a stranger here below, A pilgrim as my fathers were. 10 O spare me, Lord, avert Thy wrath, Deal gently with me, I implore, That I may yet recover strength Ere I go hence and be no more.

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Lead us, O Father, in the paths of peace]

And time's wild wintry blast Soon shall be over-past; I shall reach home at last, Heaven is my home. 3 Therefore I murmur not, Heaven is my home; Whate'er my earthly lot, Heaven is my home. And I shall surely stand There at my Lord's right hand; Heaven is my fatherland, Heaven is my home. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [I'm but a stranger here]
