Few, few and evil are thy days

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Scripture: Job 14:1-3 Lyrics: Few, few and evil are thy days, Man, of a woman born; Peril and trouble haunt thy ways; Forth, like a flower at morn, The tender infant springs to light, Youth blossoms to the breeze, Age, withering age, is cropt ere night; Man like a shadow flees. 215 And dost thou look on such an one? Will God to judgment call A worm, for what a worm hath done Against the Lord of all? As fail the waters from the deep, As summer-brooks run dry, Man lieth down in dreamless sleep, His life is vanity. Man lieth down, no more to wake, Till yonder arching sphere Shall, with a roll of thunder, break, And nature disappear. O hide me, till Thy wrath be past, Thou who canst slay or save! Hide me, where hope may anchor fast, In my Redeemer's grave. Topics: Life and death and judgment

The only Perfect

Author: James Relly Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Job 14:4 First Line: Could I of all perfection boast Lyrics: 1 Could I of all perfection boast, As pure as that which Adam lost, I'd sacrifice it to thy blood, My Christ, my all, my only good. 2 Were I as Abram, strong in faith, And boldly stedfast unto death; I'd bid my faithfulness adieu, And Jesus only faithful view. 3 If I more meek than Moses were, Quite free from anger, strife, or fear; Yet this I gladly would despise, And Jesus's meekness only prize. 4 Was I as Job submissive still, Patient, resign'd in ev'ry ill; Yet all should fade before his cross, Compar'd with him, it is but dross. 5 If I was wise as Solomon, Like him with zeal and ardour shone; Like him I'd vain and foolish see My wisdom, zeal, yea all but Thee. 6 Had I an Angel's purity; Yea even this I would deny; Nor good confess in name or thing, But Christ my Lord, my life, my King.

When mortal man resigns his breath

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Job 14:5-6 Lyrics: 1 When mortal man resigns his breath, 'Tis God directs the shafts of death, Casual howe'er the stroke appear, He sends the fatal messenger: 2 The keys are in that hand divine; That hand must first the warrant sign, And arm the death, and wing the dart, Which speeds his message to our heart. 3 Who first inspir'd the breath of lives, The living kills, the dead revives, Brings to the margin of the grave, And shows us thence his power to save: 4 From hence if thou my body raise, I'll publish my Restorer's praise, My life at thy dear hands receive, And only for thy glory live.

Few are the Days

Author: Charles P. Jones Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Job 14 First Line: Few are the days of man on earth Lyrics: 1 Few are the days of man on earth, Whate'er his lot, where'er his birth; Swift as a post they pass away, Nor have we pow'r to make them stay. 2 Yet while we daily pilgrims go, Great are our troubles here below, And often, while we have our breath, We long for rest, the rest of death. 3 Great God, the God of earth and sky, 'Tis Thou canst bless us from on high; 'Tis Thou canst make the burden light, And make our dying moments bright. 4 Then blessed Christ we look to Thee From ev'ry ill to set us free; Dwell Thou within each troubled heart, And strength divine to all impart.
