Out on life's dark heaving ocean
Author: Dr. E. H. Dewart, 1828-1903 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Doubt; Doubt Lyrics: 1 Out on life's dark heaving ocean,
Winds and waves around us rave;
In the tempest's wild commotion,
Friend of sinners, shield and save!
Vain are all our weak endeavours
Thou our Guide and Helper be!
Star of hope! in danger cheer us;
Help can only come from Thee.
2 When the storms of fierce temptation
Wildly sweep across our way,
And the night of fear and sorrow
Quenches every starry ray,
Let Thy presence, great Redeemer,
Banish all our guilty fear;
And the joy of Thy salvation
Every fainting spirit cheer.
3 When the mists of doubt and passion
Hide the reefs and shoals from sight,
God of Love, protect and save us!
Be our Refuge and our Light;
Be our sure, unerring Pilot,
Guide us safely to the shore,
Where the waves of sin and sorrow
Beat upon the soul no more. Used With Tune: BITHYNIA
Out on life's dark heaving ocean

When, O God, our faith is tested
My Trust is in my heav'nly Friend
Appears in 47 hymnals Topics: Doubts and Fears suppressed Lyrics: 1 My Trust is in my heav'nly Friend,
My Hope in Thee, my GOD;
Rise, and my helpless Life defend
From those that seek my Blood.
2 With Insolence and Fury they
My Soul in Pieces tear,
As hungry Lions rend the Prey,
When no Deliverer's near.
3 If I had e'er provok'd them first,
Or once abus'd my Foe,
Then let him tread my Life to Dust,
And lay mine Honour low.
4 If there be Malice found in me,
I know thy piercing Eyes;
I should not dare appeal to Thee,
Nor ask my GOD to rise.
5 Arise, my GOD, lift up thy Hand,
Their Pride and Pow'r controul;
Awake to Judgment, and command
Deliv'rance for my Soul.
Pause.
6 [Let Sinners, and their wicked Rage
Be humbled to the Dust;
Shall not the GOD of Truth engage
To vindicate the Just?
7 He knows the Heart, he tries the Reigns,
He will defend th' Upright:
His sharpest Arrows he ordains
Against the Sons of Spite.
8 For me their Malice digg'd a Pit,
But there themselves are cast;
My GOD makes all their Mischiefs light
On their own Heads at last.]
9 That cruel persecuting Race
Must feel his dreadful Sword:
Awake my Soul, and praise the Grace
And Justice of the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 7
My Trust is in my heav'nly Friend

When darkness long has veil'd my mind
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 125 hymnals Topics: Christian experience Doubts and Fears Lyrics: 1 When darkness long has vail'd my mind,
And smiling day once more appears,
Then, my Redeemer! then I find
The folly of my doubts and fears.
2 I chide my unbelieving heart;
And blush that I should ever be
Thus prone to act so base a part,
Or harbour one hard thought of thee!
3 O let me then at length be taught
(What I am still so slow to learn,)
That God is love, and changes not,
Nor knows the shadow of a turn.
4 Sweet truth, and easy to repeat!
But when my faith is sharply try'd
I find myself a learner yet,--
Unskillful, weak, and apt to slide.
5 But, O my Lord, one look from thee
Subdues the disobedient will;
Drives doubt and discontent away,
And thy rebellious worm is still.
6 Thou art as ready to forgive,
As I am ready to repine;
Thou, therefore, all the praise receive;
Be shame, and self-abhorrence, mine.
When darkness long has veil'd my mind
