As oft, with worn and weary feet

Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #706 (1886) Lyrics: 1 As oft, with worn and weary feet, We tread earth's rugged valley o'er, The thought, how comforting and sweet, Christ trod this very path before! Our wants and weaknesses he knows From life's first dawning till its close. 2 Do sickness, feebleness, or pain, Or sorrow in our path appear? The recollection will remain, More deeply did he suffer here: His life, how truly sad and brief, Filled up with suffering and with grief! 3 If Satan tempts our hearts to stray, And whispers evil things within, So did he, in the desert way, Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin, When worn, and in a feeble hour, The tempter came with all his power. 4 Just such as I, this earth he trod, With every human ill but sin; And, though indeed the Son of God, As I am now, so he has been: My God, my Saviour! look on me With pity, love, and sympathy Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Tune Title: YOAKLEY

When gathering clouds around I view

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #707 (1886) Lyrics: 1 When gathering clouds around I view, And days are dark and friends are few, On Him I lean who not in vain Experienced every human pain: He sees my wants, allays my fears, And counts and treasures up my tears. 2 If aught should tempt my soul to stray From heavenly wisdom's narrow way, To fly the good I would pursue, Or do the sin I would not do, Still, He who felt temptation's power Shall guard me in that dangerous hour. 3 If wounded love my bosom swell, Deceived by those I prized too well, He shall his pitying aid bestow Who felt on earth severer woe, At once betrayed, denied, or fled, By those who shared his daily bread. 4 When sorrowing o'er some stone I bend Which covers what was once a friend, And from his voice, his hand, his smile, Divides me for a little while, Thou, Saviour, mark'st the tears I shed; For thou didst weep o'er Lazarus dead.

Be still, my heart! these anxious cares

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #708 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Be still, my heart! these anxious cares To thee are burdens, thorns, and snares; They cast dishonor on thy Lord, And contradict his gracious word; Brought safely by his hand thus far, Why wilt thou now give place to fear? 2 When first before his mercy-seat Thou didst to him thy all commit, He gave thee warrant from that hour To trust his wisdom, love, and power: Did ever trouble yet befall And he refuse to hear thy call? 3 He who has helped thee hitherto, Will help thee all thy journey through; Though rough and thorny be the road, It leads thee home, apace, to God; Then count thy present trials small, For heaven will make amends for all.

"Day of Rest"

Hymnal: Laudes Domini #15 (1884) First Line: The day of rest once more comes round Lyrics: 1 The day of rest once more comes round, A day to all believers dear; The silver trumpets seem to sound, That call the tribes of Israel near; Ye people all, Obey the call, And in Jehovah's courts appear. 2 Obedient to thy summons, Lord, We to thy sanctuary come; Thy gracious presence here afford, And send thy people joyful home; Of thee our King, Oh, may we sing, And none with such a theme be dumb. 3 Oh, hasten, Lord, the day when those Who know thee here shall see thy face; When suffering shall for ever close, And they shall reach their destined place; Then shall they rest, Supremely blest, Eternal debtors to thy grace.
