O my soul, what means this sadness?

Author: Fawcett Meter: 8.7.6 Appears in 188 hymnals Topics: Encouragement Lyrics: 1 O my soul, what means this sadness? Wherefore art thou thus cast down? Let thy griefs be turned to gladness; Bid thy restless fears be gone; Look to Jesus, And rejoice in his dear name. 2 What though Satan’s strong temptations Vex and tease thee day by day, And thy sinful inclinations Often fill thee with dismay? Thou shalt conquer, Through the Lamb’s redeeming blood. 3 Though ten thousand ills beset thee, From without and from within, Jesus says he’ll ne’er forget thee, But will save from hell and sin; He is faithful, To perform his gracious word. 4 Though distresses now attend thee, And thou tread’st the thorny road, His right hand shall still defend thee; Soon he’ll bring thee home to God; Therefore praise him; Praise the great Redeemer’s name. 5 O that I could now adore him Like the heavenly host above, Who for ever bow before him, And unceasing sing his love! Happy songsters! When shall I your chorus join?
O my soul, what means this sadness?

Abide with Me

Author: Henry F. Lyte Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,736 hymnals Topics: Comfort and Encouragement First Line: Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide. The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day. Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away. Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me! 3 I need Thy presence ev'ry passing hour. What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thro' clouds and sunshine, oh, abide with me! 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still if Thou abide with me! 5 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine thro' the gloom and point me to the skies. Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee! In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Amen. Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

"My soul, wait thou only upon God"

Author: W. Gadsby Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Encouragement First Line: What foolish worms are we! Lyrics: 1 What foolish worms are we! How prone to start aside, And in our troubles flee From Jesus’ wounded side; To wait on self, or something base, Instead of trusting sovereign grace! 2 O that our souls could wait At all times on the Lord; And watch at wisdom’s gate, Whose mercy will afford A constant flow of every good, To souls that trust alone in God. 3 The Lord is rich indeed, And richly will supply The waiting sinner’s need, With blessings from on high; My expectation is from God; Then wait, my soul, upon the Lord. 4 If darkness him surround, His mercy’s still the same; He never will confound The soul that waits on him; He is my All; of him I’ll boast; On him I’ll wait, and in him trust.

"The Lord be with you all"

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Encouragement First Line: The Lord himself be with you all Lyrics: 1 The Lord himself be with you all, To teach you his own will; And guide you safe from every thrall, To Zion’s heavenly hill. 2 Be with you to unfold his grace, And prove his truth divine; Unveil the glories of his face, And make his counsels shine. 3 Whatever be your state or case, The Lord himself be near; Support, protect, defend, embrace, And make your passage clear. 4 Thus may you prove his promise true, And glorify his name; And every day your songs renew, While life and breath remain. 5 The Lord be with you to the end, And land you safe above; A long eternity to spend, In singing, “God is love.”

Paraphrase 22, verses 3-8

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Encouragement First Line: Art thou afraid his power shall fail Lyrics: 1 Art thou afraid his power shall fail when comes thy evil day? And can an all-creating arm grow weary or decay? 2 Supreme in wisdom as in power the Rock of ages stands; though him thou canst not see, nor trace the working of his hands. 3 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports the fainting heart; and courage in the evil hour his heavenly aids impart. 4 Mere human power shall fast decay, and youthful vigour cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 5 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine; with growing ardour onward move, with growing brightness shine. 6 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar, their wings are faith and love, till, past the cloudy regions here, they rise to heaven above.

Count your blessings, Name them one by one; Count your many blessings, See what God has done. 2 Are you ever burdened with a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear? Count your many blessings, ev'ry doubt will fly, And you will be singing as the days go by.
