Author: Thomas Jervis Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When all the powers of nature fail; When sickness shall my heart assail, Shall every nobler part pervade, And every earthly wish shall fade: 2 When pain, of every nerve possessed, Shall vibrate in my throbbing breast; Or languor o’er my senses steal, And medicine lose its power to heal: 3 When death shall chill the vital heat; When this fond heart shall cease to beat, This faltering tongue forget to speak, A mortal paleness on my cheek: 4 When my dim eyes are sunk in death, And God who gave shall take my breath; May He sustain my fainting heart, And comfort to my soul impart. 5 May His bright presence bring relief From fear, despondency, and grief: His cheering voice direct my way To regions of eternal day.

While feeble mortals raise their cries, Wilt Thou, the great Jehovah, hear? 2 How shall Thy servants give Thee rest, Till Zion’s moldering walls Thou raise? Till Thine own power shall stand confessed And make Jerusalem a praise? 3 For this, a lowly suppliant crowd Here in Thy sacred temple wait: For this, we lift our voices loud, And call, and knock at mercy’s gate. 4 Look down, O God, with pitying eye, And view the desolation round; See what wide realms in darkness lie, And hurl their idols to the ground. 5 Loud let the Gospel trumpet blow, And call the nations from afar; Let all the isles their Savior know, And earth’s remotest ends draw near. 6 Let Babylon’s proud altars shake, And light invade her darkest gloom; The yoke of iron bondage break, The yoke of Satan, and of Rome. 7 With gentle beams on our nation shine, And bless her princes and their priests; And by Thine energy divine Let sacred love o’erflow their breasts. 8 Triumphant here let Jesus reign, And on His vineyard sweetly smile; While all the virtues of His train Adorn our church, adorn our life. 9 On all our souls let grace descend, Like heav’nly dew in copious showers, That we may call our God our friend, That we may hail salvation ours. 10 Then shall each age and rank agree United shouts of joy to raise; And Zion, made a praise by Thee, To Thee shall render back the praise.

Shall be his comfort in distress, And guide him through the wilderness. 3 His works shall prosper—he shall be A fruitful, fair, unwithering tree, That, planted where the river flows, Nor drought, nor frost, nor mildew knows. 4 Not so the wicked—they are cast Like chaff upon the eddying blast; In judgment they shall quake for dread, Nor with the righteous lift their head. 5 For God hath spied their secret path. And they shall perish in His wrath; He too hath marked His people’s road, And brings them to His own abode.
