How soft the words my Saviour speaks

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #762 (1844) Lyrics: 1 How soft the words my Saviour speaks, How kind the promises he makes! A bruisèd reed he never breaks, Nor will he quench the smoking flax. 2 The humble poor he’ll not despise, Nor on the contrite sinner frown; His ear is open to their cries, And quickly sends salvation down. 3 He sees the struggles that prevail Between the powers of grace and sin, He kindly listens while they tell The bitter pangs they feel within. 4 Though pressed with fears on every side, They know not how the strife may end; Yet he will soon the cause decide, And judgment unto victory send.

Early Piety

Author: Dr. S. Stennett Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DXVII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: How soft the words my Savior speaks! Lyrics: 1 How soft the words my Savior speaks! How kind the promises he makes! A bruised reed he never breaks, Now will he quench the smoking flax. 2 The humble poor he won't despise, Nor on the contrite sinner frown; His ear is open to their cries, He quickly sends salvation down. 3 When piety in early minds, Like tender buds, begins to shoot, He guards the plants from threatening winds And ripens blossoms into fruit. 4 With humble souls he bears a part In all the sorrows they endure; Tender and gracious is his heart, His promise is for ever sure. 5 He sees the struggles that prevail Between the powers of grace and sin: He kindly listens while they tell The bitter pangs they fell within. 6 Tho' press'd with fears on ev'ry side, They know not how the strife may end; Yet he will soon the cause decide, And judgment unto vict'ry send.
