Seems it in my anguish lone
Author: Christoph Titius; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #412 (1908) Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Cross and Consolation; Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Seems it in my anguish lone,
As though God forsook His own,
Yet I hold this knowledge fast,
God will surely help at last.
2 Though awhile it be delayed,
He denieth not His aid;
Though it come not oft with speed,
It will surely come in need.
3 As a father not too soon
Grants his child the longed-for boon,
So our God gives when He will;
Wait His pleasure and be still.
4 I can rest in thoughts of Him,
When all courage else grows dim,
For I know my soul shall prove
His is more than father's love.
5 Would the powers of ill affright,
I can smile at all their might;
Or the cross be pressing sore,
God, my God, lives evermore!
6 Man may hate me causelessly,
Man may plot to ruin me,
Foes my heart may piecer and rend:
God in heaven is still my Friend.
7 Earth may all her gifts deny,
Safe my treasure is on high;
And if heaven at last be mine,
All things else I can resign.
8 I renounce thee willingly,
World, I hate what pleases thee,
Baneful every gift of thine,
Only be my God still mine.
9 Ah Lord, if but Thee I have,
Nought of other good I crave,
Bright is even death's dark road,
If but Thou art there, my God. Languages: English Tune Title: WEBER (Seymour)
Seems it in my anguish lone
In God, my faithful God
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #413 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 In God, my faithful God,
I trust when dark my road;
Though many woes o’ertake me,
Yet He will not forsake me;
His love it is doth send them,
And when ’tis best will end them.
2 My sins assail me sore,
But I despair no more;
I build on Christ who loves me,
From this Rock nothing moves me,
Since I can all surrender
To Him, my soul’s Defender.
3 If death my portion be,
Then death is gain to me,
And Christ my Life for ever,
From whom death cannot sever;
Come when it may, He’ll shield me,
To Him I'll wholly yield me.
4 'So be it,' then I say,
With all my heart each day;
Guide us while here we wander,
Till safely landed yonder,
We too, dear Lord, adore Thee,
And sing for joy before Thee. Languages: English

In God, my faithful God
My faith securely buildeth
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #414 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 My faith securely buildeth
On Christ who shed His blood;
This, and this only, yieldeth
The true eternal good.
The life that my soul liveth,
Finds nothing on the earth;
What Christ, the Savior, giveth
Of all our love is worth.
2 No angel, nought that gladdens,
No throne nor majesty,
No love, nor aught that saddens,
No grief nor misery,
Nor aught that man discovers,
Now be it small or great,
From Thee, my heavenly Lover's
Embrace can separate.
3 My heart with joy is springing,
And sad I cannot be;
'Tis full of joy and singing,
The sunshine doth it see.
The Sun that looks with pleasure
On me is Christ my King;
The glory beyond measure
That waits me, makes me sing. Languages: English

My faith securely buildeth
Oft in sorrow, oft in woe
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #415 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Oft in sorrow, oft in woe,
Onward, Christians, onward go;
Bear the toil, maintain the strife,
Strengthened with the Bread of life.
2 Let not sorrow dim your eye,
Soon shall every tear be dry;
Let not fears your course impede,
Great your help, if great your need.
3 Let your drooping hearts be glad;
March, in heavenly armor clad;
Fight, nor think the battle long,
Vict'ry soon shall tune your song.
4 Onward then to battle move,
More than conqu'rors ye shall prove;
Though begirt with many a foe,
Onward, Christians, onward go!

Oft in sorrow, oft in woe
Ah God, my days are dark indeed
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #416 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Ah God, my days are dark indeed,
How oft this aching heart must bleed!
The narrow way how filled with pain,
That I must pass ere heaven I gain!
How hard to teach this flesh and blood
To seek alone th'eternal good!
2 Ah whither now for comfort turn?
For Thee, my Jesus, do I yearn;
In Thee have I, howe'er distrest,
Found ever counsel, aid, and rest;
I cannot all forsaken be
While still my heart can trust in Thee.
3 Jesus, my only God and Lord,
What sweetness in Thy name is stored!
So dark and hopeless is no grief
But Thy sweet name can bring relief,
So keen no sorrows' rankling dart
But Thy sweet name can heal my heart.
4 Jesus, my Boast, my Light, my Joy,
The Treasure nought can e'er destroy,
No words, no song that I can frame
Speak half the sweetness of Thy name!
They only all its power shall prove
Whose hearts have learnt Thy faith and love.
5 Jesus, my Bridegroom and my Crown,
If Thou but smile the world may frown,
In Thee lie depths of joy untold,
Far richer than her richest gold;
Whene'er I do but think of Thee,
Thy dews drop down and solace me;
6 Let me this flesh and blood control,
From sin and shame preserve my soul,
And keep me steadfast in the faith,
Then I am Thine in life and death:
Jesus, Consoler, bend to me!
Ah would I were e'en now with Thee! Languages: English

Ah God, my days are dark indeed
When we cannot see our way
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #417 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 When we cannot see our way,
Let us trust, and still obey;
He who bids us forward go,
Cannot fail the way to show.
2 Though the sea be deep and wide,
Though a passage be denied;
Fearless let us still proceed,
Since the Lord vouchsafes to lead.
3 Though it seems the gloom of night,
Though we see no ray of light:
Since the Lord Himself is there,
‘Tis not meet that we should fear.
4 Night with Him is never night,
Where He is, there all is light;
When He calls us, why delay?
They are happy who obey.
5 Be it ours then while we’re here,
Him to follow without fear!
Where He calls us, there to go,
What He bids us, that to do. Languages: English
When we cannot see our way
