Psalm 42

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #316 (1888) Topics: Despondency First Line: As pants the hart for cooling streams Lyrics: 1 As pants the hart for cooling streams, When heated in the chase, So longs my soul, O God, for thee, And thy refreshing grace. 2 For thee, my God--the living God, My thirsty soul doth pine; Oh, when shall I behold thy face, Thou Majesty divine! 3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Trust God: who will employ His aid for thee, and change these sighs To thankful hymns of joy. 4 I sigh to think of happier days, When thou, O Lord! wast nigh; When every heart was tuned to praise, And none more blest than I. 5 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Hope still; and thou shalt sing The praise of him who is thy God, Thy health's eternal spring. Scripture: Psalm 42:1 Languages: English Tune Title: CHERITH

A hard heart

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Laudes Domini #320 (1888) Topics: Despondency First Line: Oh, this soul, how dark and blind! Lyrics: 1 Oh, this soul, how dark and blind! Oh, this foolish, earthly mind! Oh, this froward, selfish will, Which refuses to be still! Oh, these ever-roaming eyes, Upward that refuse to rise! Oh, those wayward feet of mine, Found in every path but thine! 2 Oh, this stubborn, prayerless knee, Hands so seldom clasped to thee, Longings of the soul, that go Like the wild wind, to and fro! To and fro, without an aim, Turning idly whence they came, Bringing in no joy, no bliss, Only adding weariness! 3 Giver of the heavenly peace! Bid, oh, bid these tumults cease; Minister thy holy balm; Fill me with thy Spirit's calm: Thou, the Life, the Truth, the Way, Leave me not in sin to stay; Bearer of the sinner's guilt, Lead me, lead me, as thou wilt. Scripture: Isaiah 42:16 Languages: English Tune Title: CULFORD

"What hourly dangers!"

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: Laudes Domini #323 (1888) Topics: Despondency First Line: Alas! what hourly dangers rise! Lyrics: 1 Alas! what hourly dangers rise! What snares beset my way! To heaven, oh, let me lift mine eyes, And hourly watch and pray. 2 How oft my mournful thoughts complain, And melt in flowing tears! My weak resistance, ah, how vain! How strong my foes and fears! 3 O gracious God! in whom I live, My feeble efforts aid; Help me to watch, and pray, and strive, Though trembling and afraid. 4 Increase my faith, increase, my hope, When foes and fears prevail; And bear my fainting spirit up, Or soon my strength will fail. 5 Oh, keep me in thy heavenly way, And bid the tempter flee! And let me never, never stray From happiness and thee. Scripture: Matthew 26:41 Languages: English Tune Title: COOLING

And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; And still my soul would cleave to Thee, Though prostrate in the dust. Languages: English

O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #373 (1870) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Despondency Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more! The light of His countenance shineth so bright, That here, as in heaven, there need be no night. 2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear; I tremble no more when I see Jesus near; I know that His presence my safeguard will be, For, "Why are you troubled?" He saith unto me. 3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found, When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round: They bear me away in His presence to be: I see Him still nearer whom always I see. 4 Then, then shall I know the full beauty and grace Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face; I shall know how His love went before me each day, And wonder that ever my eyes turn'd away.
