My God, in Whom Are All the Springs

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Affliction Lyrics: 1 My God, in whom are all the springs of boundless love, and grace unknown, hide me beneath thy spreading wings, till fearful clouds are overblown. Up to the heav'ns I send my cry, the Lord will my desires perform; he sends his angel from the sky, and saves me from the threat'ning storm. 2 Be thou exalted, O my God, above the heav'ns, where angels dwell; thy pow'r on earth be known abroad, and land to land thy wonders tell. My heart is fixed; my song shall raise immortal honors to thy name; awake, my tongue, to sound his praise, to sing his everlasting fame. 3 High o'er the earth his mercy reigns, and reaches to the utmost sky; his truth to endless years remains, when lower worlds dissolve and die. Be thou exalted, O my God, above the heav'ns, where angels dwell; thy pow'r on earth be known abroad, and land to land thy wonders tell. Scripture: Psalm 57 Used With Tune: WITTENBERG NEW

How long shall they afflict Thy saints And devastate Thy chosen land? 3 The widow and the fatherless They slay, and helpless strangers smith; The faithful God they do not fear, They say the Lord will not requite. 4 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men; Shall not He see Who formed the eye? Shall not He hear Who formed the ear, And judge, Who reigneth, God Most High? 5 The Lord will judge in righteousness, From Him all truth and knowledge flow; The foolish thoughts of wicked men, How vain they are the Lord doth know. 6 That man is blest whom Thou, O Lord, With chastening hand dost teach Thy will, For in the day when sinners fall That man in peace abideth still. 7 The Lord will not cast off His own, Nor His inheritance forsake; Just judgment shall at length prevail, And upright hearts shall courage take. 8 Who will arise for my defense Against the wicked in the land? Against iniquity and wrong What man for me will valiant stand? 9 Unless the Lord had been my help, My life had quickly passed away; But when my foot had almost slipped, O Lord, Thy mercy was my stay. 10 Amid the doubts that fill my mind Thy comforts, Lord, bring joy to me; Can wickedness, though throned in might, Have fellowship, O Lord, with Thee? 11 The wicked, in their might arrayed, Against the righteous join their power, But to the Lord I flee for help, He is my refuge and my tower. 12 Our God, the refuge of His saints, Will fight against iniquity; Avenger of the innocent The Lord omnipotent will be. Scripture: Psalm 94 Used With Tune: LYTHAM

Refrain First Line: Los vientos, las ondas oirán tu voz Lyrics: 1 ¡Maestro, se encrespan las aguas y ruge la tempestad! Los grandes abismos del cielo se llenan de obscuridad. ¿No ves que aquí perecemos? ¿Puedes dormir así, Cuando el mar agitado nos abre profundo sepulcro aquí? Coro: Los vientos, las ondas oirán tu voz, "¡Sea la paz!" Calmas las iras del negro mar, las luchas del alma las haces cesar, Y así la barquilla do va el Señor, hundirse no puede en el mar traidor. Doquier se cumple tu voluntad, "¡Sea la paz! ¡Sea la paz!" Tu voz resuena en la inmensidad, "¡Sea la paz!" 2 Maestro, mi ser angustiado te busca con ansiedad; De mi alma en los antros profundos se libra cruel tempestad. Asalta el pecado a torrentes sobre mi frágil ser. ¡Y perezco, perezco, Maestro! ¡Oh, quiéreme socorrer! [Coro] 3 Maestro, pasó la tormenta, los vientos no rugen ya, Y sobre el cristal de las aguas el sol resplandecerá. Maestro, prolonga esta calma, no me abandones más; Cruzaré los abismos contigo, gozando bendita paz. [Coro] Scripture: Mark 6:47-51 Used With Tune: PEACE BE STILL

On the Loss of the dearest Relative

Author: Hawes Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Affliction First Line: From my fond arms my love is fled Lyrics: 1 From my fond arms my love is fled, And leaves me here to mourn; Snatch'd to the mansions of the dead, From whence there's no return. 2 My solitary bed forlorn, At night my tears bedew; And with the sun I wake at morn, My sorrows to renew. 3 Where'er I turn my weary eyes, Sad desolations reign; In her all earthly comfort dies, Nor hopes to rise again. 4 Behold me, Lord! thy grace impart! Excessive grief subdue! Compassion fills thy tender heart, Which mortals never knew. 5 In death when the lov'd Lazarus slept How pierc'd with human woe! Over his tomb my Jesus wept, With his, my tears may flow. 6 I would not murmur, though I mourn; He gave, and takes away: My comforts fled shall yet return At the eternal day.

Meter: Irregular Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 Now let our songs address the God of peace, Who bids the tumult of the battle cease; The pointed spears to pruning hooks he bends, And the broad falchion in the plough-share ends. His pow'rful word unites contending nations In kind embrace and friendly salutations. 2 While we beneath our vines and fig-trees sit, Or thus within thy sacred temple meet, Accept, great God! the tribute of our song, And all the mercies of this day prolong. Then spread thy peaceful word thro' ev'ry nation, That all the earth may hail thy great salvation.
