O, deem not they are blest alone
Author: William Cullen Bryant Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O, deem not they are blest alone
Whose lives a peaceful tenor keep;
For God, who pities man, hath shown
A blessing for the eyes that weep.
2 The light of smiles shall fill again
The lids that overflow with tears,
And weary hours of woe and pain
Are promises of happier years.
3 There is a day of sunny rest
For every dark and troubled night,
And grief may bide an evening guest,
4 Nor let the good man's trust depart,
Though life its common gifts deny;
Though with a sad and broken heart,
He sees his hopes most cherished die.
5 For God has marked each sorrowing day,
And numbered every secret tear,
And heaven's long age of bliss shall pay
For all his children suffer here. Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

My God, permit me not to be
Of Omnipresent Grace I Sing
Author: Emanuel Cronenwett Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Of omnipresent grace I sing;
For, though I take the morning's wing
And dwell beyond the outer sea,
Yet Thou art present there with me.
2 Thy hand shall lead me by the way,
Thy right hand be my staff and stay;
Though darkness compass me around,
Night shall be light where Thou art found.
3 Where Thou art, darkness cannot stay,
Thou turnest darkness into day;
Both night and light are one to Thee:
In darkness Thou still seest me.
4 Thine eye beheld me yet unborn
And watched my steps from earliest morn;
My ways are written in Thy book:
By Thee I live, to Thee I look. A-Men.
5 Thy thoughts are precious to my heart;
Thy presence bids all care depart;
I lay me down, Thou art with me;
I wake-- and still I am with Thee.
6 Lord, try my way and me anew;
Prove Thou my heart and make it true
And lead me in the better way
To life, to Thee--for aye and aye.
Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace God Used With Tune: NAZARETH (MELCOMBE)

O who like thee so calm so bright
Look from Thy sphere of endless day
Author: William Cullen Bryant Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 174 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Look from Thy sphere of endless day,
O God of mercy and of might!
In pity look on those who stray,
Benighted in this land of light.
2 In peopled vale, in lonely glen,
In crowded mart, by stream or sea,
How many of the sons of men
Hear not the message sent from Thee!
3 Send forth Thy heralds, Lord, to call
The thoughtless young, the hardened old,
A scattered, homeless flock, till all
Be gathered to Thy peaceful fold.
4 Send them Thy mighty Word to speak
Till faith shall dawn, and doubt depart,
To awe the bold, to stay the weak,
And bind and heal the broken heart.
5 Then all these wastes,--a dreary scene,
That fills with sadness as we gaze,--
Shall grow with living waters green,
And lift to heaven the voice of praise.
Amen. Topics: The Church Home and Inner Missions Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

In vain would boasting reason find
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 42 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In vain would boating reason find
The path to happiness and God;
Her weak directions leave the mind
Bewildered in a doubtful road.
2 Jesus, Thy words alone impart
Eternal life; on these I live;
Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart,
Than all the powers of nature give.
3 Here let my constant feet abide;
Thou art the true, the living Way:
Let Thy good Spirit be my Guide
To the bright realms of endless day.
4 The various forms that men devise
To shake my faith with treacherous art,
I scorn as vanity and lies,
And bind Thy Gospel to my heart. Topics: Sin and Redemption; Septuagesima Sunday; Quinquagesima Sunday; Lent, Second Sunday; Easter Season, Second Sunday; Seventh Sunday after Trinity; Ninth Sunday after Trinity; Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: MELCOMBE
