O love divine, that stooped to share
Author: Oliver W. Holmes Appears in 271 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 O love divine, that stooped to share
Our sharpest pang, our bitterest tear!
On thee we cast each earth-born care;
We smile at pain while thou art near.
2 Though long the weary way we tread,
And sorrow crown each lingering year,
No path we shun, no darkness dread;
Our hearts still whispering, "Thou art near!"
3 When drooping pleasure turns to grief,
And trembling faith is changed to fear,
The murmuring wind, the quivering leaf,
Shall softly tell us, "Thou art near!"
4 On thee we fling our burdening woe,
O love divine, forever dear;
Content to suffer while we know,
Living and dying, thou art near! Topics: The Christian Trust and Resignation Used With Tune: YORK
O love divine, that stooped to share
My God, my Father, while I stray
Author: Charlotte Elliott Appears in 548 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 My God, my Father, while I stray
Far from my home, on life's rough way,
Oh, teach me from my heart to say,
"Thy will be done, thy will be done!"
2 What though in lonely grief I sigh
For friends beloved no longer nigh;
Submissive still would I replay,
"Thy will be done, thy will be done!"
3 If thou shouldst call me to resign
What most I prize, it ne'er was mine;
I only yield thee what was thine:
"Thy will be done, thy will be done!"
4 If but my fainting heart be blest
With thy sweet Spirit for its guest,
My God, to thee I leave the rest:
"Thy will be done, thy will be done!" Topics: The Christian Trust and Resignation Used With Tune: YORK
My God, my Father, while I stray
O God, to thee we raise our eyes
Author: Charlotte Richardson Appears in 22 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O God, to thee we raise our eyes;
Calm resignation we implore;
O let no murmuring thought arise,
But humbly let us still adore.
2 With meek submission may we bear
Each needful cross thou shalt ordain;
Nor think our trials too severe,
Nor dare thy justice to arraign.
3 For though mysterious now thy ways
To erring mortals may appear,
Hereafter we thy name shall praise
For all our keenest sufferings here.
4 Thy needful help, O God, afford,
Nor let us sink in deep despair;
Aid us to trust thy sacred word,
And find our sweetest comfort there. Topics: The Christian Trust and Resignation Used With Tune: YORK
O God, to thee we raise our eyes
Thy will be done! I will not fear
Author: J. Roscoe Appears in 59 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Thy will be done! I will not fear
The fate provided by thy love;
Though clouds and darkness shroud me here.
I know that all is bright above.
2 Father, forgive the heart that clings,
Thus trembling, to the things of time;
And bid my soul, on angel wings
Ascend into a purer clime.
3 There shall no doubts disturb its trust,
No sorrows dim celestial love;
But these afflictions of the dust,
Like shadows of the night, remove Topics: The Christian Trust and Resignation Used With Tune: YORK
