GOD is the Hope of the Helpless

Appears in 49 hymnals Topics: God our only hope and help First Line: To GOD I made my Sorrows known Lyrics: 1 To GOD I made my Sorrows known, From GOD I sought Relief; In long Complaints before his Throne I pour'd out all my Grief. 2 My Soul was overwhelm'd with Woes, My Heart began to break; My GOD, who all my Burdens knows, He knows the Way I take. 3 On ev'ry Side I cast mine Eye, And found my Helpers gone, While Friends and Strangers past me by Neglected or unknown. 4 Then did I raise a louder Cry, And call'd thy Mercy near, "Thou art my Portion when I die; "Be thou my Refuge here." 5 Lord, I am brought exceeding low, Now let thine Ear attend, And make my Foes who vex me know I've an Almighty Friend. 6 From my sad Prison set me free, Then shall I praise thy Name, And holy Men shall join with me Thy Kindness to proclaim. Scripture: Psalm 142

It Was Spoken for the Master

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Kindness, Helpfulness First Line: It was spoken for a Master Refrain First Line: Gentle words of patient kindness Lyrics: 1 It was spoken for a Master, O, how lovingly it fell! It was uttered in a whisper, Who had breathed it none can tell. It was spoken for the Master, Only just a little word, But the chords that long had slumber’d, In a grief-worn heart were stirred. Refrain: Gentle words of patient kindness, Tho’ unheeded oft they seem, To the fold of grace may gather Souls of which we little dream. 2 O, we know not when we scatter, Where the precious seed will fall, But we work and trust in Jesus, For he watcheth over all. We may sow beside the waters Of affliction, it may be, But the fruits of earnest labor At the reaping we shall see. [Refrain] 3 When our busy toil is over, From the vineyard when we go, We shall find a store of blessings That on earth we could not know. We shall wonder at the brightness Of the crowns we then shall wear, But the Lord himself will tell us Why he placed the jewels there. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [It was spoken for a Master]
