Author: Joseph M. Scriven Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,710 hymnals Topics: Afflictions Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
oh, what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge!
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield you;
you will find a solace there.

What crosses and afflictions meet
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Crosses and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 What crosses and afflictions meet,
Whilst we on earth abide;
With Satan and the world beset,
And vex'd on ev'ry side.
2 Our toils and labours of this life,
Are great and numberless;
Our disappointments, frets and strife,
Do ever mar our peace.
3 When we suppose we do possess
The things that works our joys;
They prove the cause of our distress,
And are but trifling toys.
4 The world is but a vale of tears,
A scene of constant woe:
We live in constant dread and fears,
While we live here below.
5 With anxious cares our minds are fill'd,
For life and health and food:
To such despairing thoughts we yield,
When we should trust to God.
6 Such frail and feeble creatures we,
We seek but never find,
Such treasures as we hope should be;
Real peace and joy of mind.
7 O mighty Saviour, gracious Lord!
Bestow on us that pow'r:
That we may trust unto thy word,
And doubt and fear no more.

What vain desires and passions vain
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Afflictions very great; Afflicted their prayer Lyrics:
What vain desires and passions vain
Attend this mortal clay!
Oft have they pierced my soul with pain,
And drawn my heart astray.
How have I wandered from my God!
And, following sin and shame,
In this vile world of flesh and blood
Defiled my nobler frame!
For ever blessed be thy grace
That formed my soul anew,
And made it of a heav'n-born race,
Thy glory to pursue.
My spirit holds perpetual war,
And wrestles and complains;
But views the happy moment near
That shall dissolve its chains.
Cheerful in death I close my eyes
To part with every lust;
And charge my flesh, whene'er it rise,
To leave them in the dust.
My purer spirit shall not fear
To put this body on;
Its tempting powers no more are there,
Its lusts and passions gone!
Scripture: Romans 8:1
What vain desires and passions vain

The blessings which thy goodness lent!

Though loud our crimes for vengeance cry,
Let mercy's louder voice prevail,
Nor thy long-suffering patience fail.
5 Encourag'd by thy sacred word,
May we not plead thy promise, Lord;
That when an humble nation mourns,
Thy rising wrath to pity turns?

Contrition to each rocky heart;
And bid sincere repentance flow,
In general, undissembled wo.

With plenty bless the pining poor:
And may a happy, thankful land,
Obedient own thy guardian hand.

Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.

Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 869 hymnals Topics: Church Afflicted Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the Word:
from heav'n he came and sought her
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from ev'ry nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses,
with ev'ry grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
men see her sore oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping,
their cry goes up, "How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 The church shall never perish!
Her dear Lord to defend,
to guide, sustain, and cherish,
is with her to the end;
though there be those that hate her,
and false sons in her pale,
against or foe or traitor
she ever shall prevail.
5 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
6 Yet she on earth hath union
with God the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee.

were strong to heal and save;
they triumphed over pain and death,
o'er darkness and the grave.
To you they went, the blind, the mute,
the palsied and the lame,
the leper set apart and shunned,
the sick and those in shame.
2 And then your touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed, with health restored,
claimed you, the Lord of light.
And so, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty now as then,
in every street, in every home,
in every troubled friend.
3 O be our mighty healer still,
O Lord of life and death;
restore and strengthen, soothe and bless
with your almighty breath.
On hands that work and eyes that see,
your healing wisdom pour,
that whole and sick and weak and strong
may praise you evermore.

And thy deliverance send;
My soul for thy salvation faints,
When will my troubles end!
2 Yet I have found 'tis good for me
To bear my Father's rod;
Afflictions make me learn thy law,
And live upon my God.
3 This is the comfort I enjoy
When new distress begins:
I read thy word, I run thy way,
And hate my former sins.
4 Had not thy word been my delight
When earthly joys were fled,
My soul, opprest with sorrow's weight,
Had sunk amongst the dead.
5 I know thy judgments, Lord, are right,
Though they may seem severe;
The sharpest sufferings I endure,
Flow from thy faithful care.
6 Before I knew thy chastening rod,
My feet were apt to stray;
But now I learn to keep thy word,
Nor wander from thy way. Scripture: Psalm 119:67
