Remembrance of Church Priveleges

Hymnal: PS1912 #380 (1912) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Tune Title: BENEDICTION First Line: By Babel's riverside we sat in tears Lyrics: 1 By Babel's riverside we sat in tears, Rememb'ring Zion's pride in former years, While on the weeping willows there were hung The harps our grief had silenced and unstrung. 2 For they who led us there a captive throng Required that we prepare for them a song; Yea, there our captives asked for mirth and praise, Required a song of Zion's happy days. 3 O how shall we thus sing at their command Songs of the Lord, our King, in this strange land? O Zion, if I e'er forget thy woe, Let my right hand its skill no longer know. 4 Yea, let my tongue, i pray, all silent be, If I do not alway remember thee; If I prefer not thee, thought in thy grief, Above all other joys my very chief.

The Frailty of Life

Hymnal: PS1912 #104 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: BERA First Line: With firm resolve I held my peace Lyrics: 1 With firm resolve I held my peace And spake not either bad or good, Lest I should utter sinful thoughts While wicked men before me stood. 2 While I was dumb my grief was stirred, My heart grew hot with thought suppressed; The while I mused the fire increased, Then to the Lord I made request. 3 Make me, O Lord, to know my end, Teach me the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am And turn from pride and sinful ways. 4 My time is nothing in Thy sight, Behold, my days are but a span; yea, truly at his best estate, A breath, a fleeting breath, is man. 5 Man's life is passed in vain desire If troubled years be spent for gain; He knows not whose his wealth shall be, And all his toil is but in vain. 6 And now, O Lord, what wait I for? I have no nope except in Thee; Let not ungodly men reproach, From all transgression set me free. 7 Because Thou didst it I was dumb, I spoke no word of rash complaint; Remove Thy stroke away from me, Beneath Thy chastisement I faint. 8 When Thou for his iniquity Rebukest and correctest man, His beauty is consumed away, How weak his strength, how vain his plan. 9 Lord, hear my prayer, regard my cry, I weep, be Thou my comforter; I am a stranger here below, A pilgrim as my fathers were. 10 O spare me, Lord, avert Thy wrath, Deal gently with me, I implore, That I may yet recover strength Ere I go hence and be no more.
