Desiring the Presence of GOD in Affliction

Author: Steele Hymnal: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns #CXLV (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Collection of Evangelical Hymns First Line: Thou only center of my rest Lyrics: 1 Thou only center of my rest, Look down with pitying eye, While with protracted pain opprest, I breathe the plaintive sigh. 2 Thy gracious presence O my God, My ev'ry wish contains; With this, beneath affliction's load, My heart no more complains. 3 This can my every care controul, Gild each dark scene with light; This is the sunshine of the soul; Without it all is night. 4 My Lord, my life, O cheer my heart With thy reviving ray, And bid these mournful shades depart, And bring the dawn of day! 5 O happy scenes of pure delight! Where thy full beams impart Unclouded beauty to the sight, And rapture to the heart. 6 Her part in those fair realms of bliss, My spirit longs to know; My wishes terminate in this, Nor can they rest below. 7 Lord, shall the breathings of my heart, Aspire in vain to thee? Confirm my hope, that where thou art, I shall forever be. 8 Then shall my cheerful spirit sing The darksome hours away, And rise on faith's expanded wing To everlasting day.
