My Soul for Thy Salvation Faints
Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My soul for Thy salvation faints,
But still I hope in Thee;
I long to see Thy promised help,
When Thou shalt comfort me.
2. Thy statutes I do not forget,
Though wasting grief I know;
Thy servant’s days are few, O Lord:
When wilt Thou judge my foe?
3. The proud, disdainful of Thy law,
Entrap me wrongfully;
O Thou, whose law is just and true,
Help and deliver me.
4. Almost consumed, yet from Thy law
I have not turned away;
In lovingkindness give me strength,
That I may still obey. Used With Tune: MORRISON Text Sources: From The Psalter (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: The United Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1912), number 331
My Soul for Thy Salvation Faints
Awake, My Heart; Arise, My Tongue
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 124 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Awake, my heart; arise, my tongue,
Prepare a tuneful voice;
In God, the life of all my joys,
Aloud will I rejoice.
2. ’Tis He adorned my naked soul,
And made salvation mine;
Upon a poor polluted worm
He makes His graces shine.
3. And lest the shadow of a spot
Should on my soul be found,
He took the robe the Savior wrought,
And cast it all around.
4. How far the heav’nly robe exceeds
What earthly princes wear!
These ornaments, how bright they shine!
How white the garments are!
5. The Spirit wrought my faith, and love,
And hope, and every grace;
But Jesus spent His life to work
The robe of righteousness.
6. Strangely, my soul, art thou arrayed
By the great Sacred Three!
In sweetest harmony of praise
Let all thy powers agree. Used With Tune: MORRISON Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Songs, Book I, 1707, number 20.
Awake, My Heart; Arise, My Tongue
