So fades the lovely blooming flow'r
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 137 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 So fades the lovely blooming flow’r,
Frail, smiling solace of an hour;
So soon our transient comforts fly,
And pleasure only blooms to die.
2 Is there no kind, no healing art,
To soothe the anguish of the heart?
Spirit of grace, be ever nigh;
Thy comforts are not made to die.
3 Let gentle patience smile on pain,
Till dying hope revives again,
Hope wipes the tear from sorrow’s eye,
And faith points upward to the sky. Used With Tune: DISTRESS

Our hopes and fears, our joy and strife.

O Christ, the Healer, We Have Come
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 37 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From ev'ry ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamor to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 In conflicts that destroy our health
we recognize the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills.
Is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
4 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of human-kind. Topics: Healing; Community in Christ; Healing Used With Tune: DISTRESS
O Christ, the Healer, We Have Come
O LORD, Thou Judge of All the Earth
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O LORD, Thou Judge of all the earth,
to whom all vengeance doth belong,
arise and show Thy glory forth,
requite the proud, condemn the wrong.
2 How long, O LORD, in boastful pride
shall wicked men triumphant stand?
How long shall they afflict Thy saints
and scorn Thy wrath, Thy dreadful hand?
3 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men;
shall not He see who formed the eye?
Shall not He hear who formed the ear,
and judge, who reigneth God most high?
4 The LORD will judge in righteousness,
from Him all truth and knowledge flow;
the foolish thoughts of wicked men,
how vain they are the LORD doth know.
5 That man is blest whom thou, O LORD,
with chastening hand dost teach Thy will,
for in the day when sinners fall
that man in peace abideth still.
6 Unless the LORD had been my Help,
my life had quickly passed away;
but when my foot had almost slipped,
O LORD, Thy mercy was my stay.
7 Amid the doubts that fill my mind
Thy comforts, LORD, bring joy to me;
can wickedness, though throned in might,
have fellowship, O LORD, with Thee?
8 The wicked, in their might arrayed,
against the righteous join their pow'r,
but to the LORD I flee for help;
He is my Refuge and my Tow'r.

When pain and anguish seize me, Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: When pain and anguish seize me, Lord,
all my support is from your word:
my soul despairs in heaviness;
uphold me with your strengthening grace!

they hate to see me love your laws;
but I will trust and love your name
till pride and malice die in shame.
Your precepts make me truly wise;
I’ll spurn vain thoughts that may arise;
I will not take a sinner’s road;
I yield me to your law, O God.
