1 Hymn 35. C. M. ONG have I seem'd to serve thee, Lord, Fasted, and pray'd, and read thy word, 3 I rested in the outward law, 4 To please thee thus at length I see, 5 I see the perfect law requires Our full consent, our whole desires, 6 But I of means have made my boast, The substance in the shade. 7 Where am I now, or what my hope? 'Tis thou must make it new.. GO Hymn 36. C. M. OD is in this and every place, To me; 'tis one great wilderness, 2 Empty of him who all things fills, Till he his glorious self reveals, 3 0 thou who seest and know'st my grief, Thyself unseen, unknown; Pity iny helpless unbelief, And break my heart of stone. 5 A darker soul did never yet 6 Now, Jesus, now the Father's love The middle wall of sin remove, TH Hymn 37. C. M. NHOU hidden God, for whom I groan, God inaccessible, unknown, 2 A sinner welt'ring in his blood, Far distant from the living God, 4 The darkness which, thro' thee, I feel, 5 I am in unbelief shut up, That grace may let me go; 6 Thou wilt in me reveal thy name, 7 I would not to thy foe submit: Send forth thy pris'ner from the pit, 8 Show me the blood that bought my peace, The cov'nant blood apply! And all my griefs at once shall cease, 9 Now, Lord, if thou art power, descend: My unbelief and troubles end, 10 Speak, Jesus, speak into my heart, HOU Man of griefs, remember me, Twho never canst thyself forget Thy last mysterious agony, Thy fainting pangs and bloody sweat. 2 When wrestling in the strength of prayer, Thy spirit sunk beneath its load; Thy feeble flesh abhorr'd to bear The wrath of an Almighty God. 3 Father, if I may call thee so, Regard my fearful heart's desire: Remove this load of guilty wo, Nor let me in my sins expire. 4 I tremble, lest the wrath divine, Which bruises now my wretched soul, Should bruise this wretched soul of mine, Long as eternal ages roll. 5 To thee my last distress I bring! The heighten'd fear of death I find; The tyrant brandishing his sting, Appears, and hell is close behind. 6 I deprecate that death alone, That endless banishment from thee: O save, and give me to thy Son, Who trembled, wept, and bled for me! Hymn 39. L. M. LORD wl break with thee: ORD Jesus, when, when shall it be, When will this war of passions cease, 4 Guide thou, O Lord, guide thou my course, Hymn 40. L. M. GOD to whom in flesh reveal'd, 2 With publicans and harlots I, In these thy Spirit's gospel days, 3 Thou seest me helpless and distress'd, And sick of sin implore a cure. |
