Hope still; and thou shalt sing the praise of him who is thy God, thy health's eternal spring.

In Silence My Soul Is Waiting

Author: Michael Saward, 1932- Hymnal: TH1990 #666 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 In silence my soul is waiting, is waiting for God alone; deliv'rance from him is coming, my rescuer, fort, and rock. In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 2 You set on a man and you beat him, the pack of you knock him down; as a tottering wall he staggers, sub-sides like a sagging fence. In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 3 You plot for his undermining, you slander him with your lies; you love, with faint praise, to damn him; sweet tongued, you've a curse-filled heart. In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 4 Be silent, my soul, in waiting, in waiting for God alone; assurance from him is coming, my rescuer, fort, and rock. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 5 There's safety in God, and honor, my refuge, my rock, my strength, so hide in our God, you people, and pour out your hearts to him. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 6 Just puffs of the wind, the people, great men are illusions, all; as breath in the air, they're measured, then weightless they fade away. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 7 Don't trust, then, in cruel extortion, don't plunder, defraud, and steal; don't set your heart on possessions, especially if they increase. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 8 Uniquely, our God has spoken, of two things I've heard him speak; he's the source of pow'r and mercy; to men he repays their deeds. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. Topics: Deliverance; Waiting upon God ; The Christian Life Trust in God Scripture: Psalm 62 Languages: English Tune Title: SILENCE

Commit Now All Your Griefs

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Hymnal: TH1990 #669 (1990) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all your griefs and ways into his hands; to his sure truth and tender care, who earth and heav'n commands. Who points the clouds their course, whom winds and seas obey, he shall direct your wand'ring feet, hHe shall prepare your way. 2 Give to the winds your fears; hope, and be undismayed; God hears your sighs and counts your tears, God shall lift up your head. Through waves and clouds and storms he gently clears your way; wait for his time, so shall the night soon end in joyous day. 3 Still heavy is your heart? Still sink your spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, and every care be gone. He everywhere has sway, and all things serve his might; his every act pure blessing is, his path unsullied light. 4 Far, far above your thought his counsel shall appear, when fully he the work has wrought that caused your needless fear. Leave to his sovereign sway to choose and to command; with wonder filled, you then hall own how wise, how strong his hand.

If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee

Author: Georg Neumark; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: TH1990 #670 (1990) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 If thou but suffer God to guide thee, and hope in him through all thy ways, he'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee, and bear thee through the evil days: Who trusts in God's unchanging love builds on the Rock that naught can move. 2 What can these anxious cares avail thee, these never-ceasing moans and sighs? What can it help, if thou bewail thee o'er each dark moment as it flies? Our cross and trials do but press the heavier for our bitterness. 3 Only be still, and wait his leisure in cheerful hope, with heart content to take whate'er thy Father's pleasure and all deserving love hath sent; nor doubt our inmost wants are known to him who chose us for his own. 4 All are alike before the Highest; 'tis easy to our God, we know, to raise thee up though low thou liest, to make the rich man poor and low; true wonders still by him are wrought who setteth up and brings to naught. 5 Sing, pray, and keep his ways unswerving, so do thine own part faithfully, and trust his Word - though undeserving, thou yet shalt find it true for thee; God never yet forsook at need the soul that trusted him indeed.
