In God, my faithful God
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #351 (1893) Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 IN GOD, my faithful God,
I trust when dark my road;
Though many woes o'ertake me,
Yet He will not forsake me;
His love it is doth send them,
And when 'tis best will end them.
2 My sins assail me sore,
But I despair no more;
I build on Christ who loves me,
From this Rock nothing moves me,
Since I can all surrender
To Him, my soul's Defender.
3 If death my portion be,
Then death is gain to me,
And Christ my life forever,
From whom death cannot sever;
Come when it may, He'll shield me,
To Him I wholly yield me.
4 O Jesus Christ, my Lord,
So meek in deed and word,
Thou once didst die to save us,
Because Thou fain wouldst have us
After this life of sadness
Heirs of Thy heavenly gladness.
5 "So be it," then I say,
With all my heart each day;
We too, dear Lord, adore Thee,
Guide us while here we wander,
Till safely landed yonder,
And sing for joy before Thee.

In God, my faithful God
In Thee, Lord, have I put my trust
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #352 (1893) Meter: 8.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 IN Thee, Lord, have I put my trust,
Leave me not helpless in the dust,
Let me not be confounded;
Let in Thy Word
My faith, 0 Lord,
Be always firmly grounded.
2 Bow down Thy gracious ear to me,
And hear my prayers, Lord speedily
O grant me Thy protection;
For woes and fear
Surround me here
Help me in mine affliction.
3 My God and Shield, now let Thy power
Be unto me a mighty tower,
Whence bravely I defend me
Against the foes
That round me close;
0 Lord, assistance lend me!
4 Thy Word hath said, Thou art my Rock,
My Fortress that can fear no shock,
My Help, my Life, my Treasure;
Howe'er distress
And dangers press,
All must perform Thy pleasure.
5 The world for me has falsely set
Full many a secret snare and net,
Dark lies and sore temptations;
Lord hear my prayers,
And break these snares
And hellish machinations.
6 With Thee, Lord, would I cast my lot;
My God, my God, forsake me not,
For, Lord, I am commending
My soul to thee;
Deliver me
Now and when life is ending.
7 All honor, praise, and majesty
To Father, Son, and Spirit be,
Our God forever glorious,
In whose rich grace
We'll run our race,
Till we depart victorious. Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
In Thee, Lord, have I put my trust
In weariness and pain
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #353 (1893) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 IN weariness and pain,
By sins and fears oppressed,
I turn me to my Rest again,
My soul's eternal Rest.
2 The Lamb that died for me,
And still my load doth bear;
To Jesus' streaming wounds I flee,
And find my quiet there.
3 Jesus, was ever grief,
Was ever love like Thine?
Thy sorrow, Lord, is my relief,
Thy life hath ransomed mine.
4 O may I rise with Thee,
And soar to things above,
And spend a blest eternity
In praise of dying Love. Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
In weariness and pain
Lord God, who art my Father dear
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #354 (1893) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 LORD GOD, who art my Father dear,
I pray in Jesus' name; O hear
What, trusting in His promised word,
I humbly ask of Thee, good Lord.
2 Grant us Thy Word, Thy Spirit give,
That by His grace we godly live,
Give shelter, peace, good friends, and food,
Protect our native land, O God.
3 Save us from sin and Satan's fraud,
Deliver us from evil, God,
Be with us in our dying hour;
Thine is the kingdom, glory, power.
4 Lord, at Thy word, Amen, I say;
Increase my feeble faith, I pray.
Thou lead'st me with a Father's care,
O let me be Thy child and heir! Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
Lord God, who art my Father dear
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #355 (1893) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 LORD, it belongs not to my care,
Whether I die or live:
To love and serve Thee is my share,
And this Thy grace must give.
2 If life be long, I will be glad
That I may long obey;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To soar to endless day?
3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms
Than He went through before:
He that into God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet
Thy blessed face to see;
For if Thy work on earth be sweet,
What will Thy glory be?
5 Then shall I end my sad complaints,
And weary sinful days,
And join with the triumphant saints,
That sing Jehovah's praise.
6 My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with Him. Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
Lord, it belongs not to my care
My Father! cheering name!
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #356 (1893) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 MY FATHER! cheering name!
Oh, may I call Thee mine!
Give me with humble hope to claim
A portion so divine.
2 Whate'er Thy will denies,
I calmly would resign;
For Thou art just, and good, and wise,
O bend my will to Thine!
3 Whate'er Thy will ordains,
O give me strength to bear;
Still let me know a Father reigns,
And trust a Father's care.
4 Thy ways are little known
To my weak, erring sight;
Yet shall my soul, believing, own
That all Thy ways are right. Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
My Father! cheering name!
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #357 (1893) Meter: 6.4 Lyrics: 1 NEARER, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
E’en though it be a cross
That raiseth me;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
2 Though like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone,
Yet in my dreams I’d be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
3 There let my way appear
Steps unto heaven;
All that Thou sendest me,
In mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, to Thee!
4 Then with my waking thoughts
Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
5 Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee! Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
Nearer, my God, to Thee
O Thou, from whom all goodness flows
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #358 (1893) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O THOU, from whom all goodness flows,
I lift my heart to Thee;
In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes,
Dear Lord, remember me!
2 When on my aching, burdened heart
My sins lie heavily,
Thy pardon speak, new peace impart;
In love remember me.
3 Temptations sore obstruct my way,
And ills I cannot flee;
O give me strength, Lord, as my day
For good remember me!
4 Distrest with pain, disease, and grief,
This feeble body see;
Grant patience, rest, and kind relief;
Hear, and remember me!
5 When in the solemn hour of death
I wait Thy just decree;
Be this the prayer of my last breath,
Good Lord, remember me!
6 And when before Thy throne I stand
And lift my soul to Thee;
Then with the saints at Thy right hand,
Good Lord, remember me!

O Thou, from whom all goodness flows
Oft in sorrow, oft in woe
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #359 (1893) Lyrics: 1 OFT in sorrow, oft in woe,
Onward, Christians, onward go;
Bear the toil, maintain the strife,
Strengthened with the Bread of life.
2 Let not sorrow dim your eye,
Soon shall every tear be dry;
Let not woe your course impede,
Great your help, if great your need.
3 Let your drooping hearts be glad;
March, in heavenly armor clad;
Fight, nor think the battle long,
Victory soon shall tune your song.
4 Onward then to battle move,
More than conquerors ye shall prove;
Though begirt with many a foe,
Onward, Christians, onward go! Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
Oft in sorrow, oft in woe
Seems it in my anguish lone
Hymnal: ELHL1892 #360 (1893) Lyrics: 1 SEEMS it in my anguish lone,
As though God forsook His own,
Yet I hold the knowledge fast,
God will surely help at last.
2 Though awhile it be delayed,
He denieth not His aid;
Though it come not oft with speed,
It will surely come at need.
3 As a father not too soon
Grants his child the longed-for boon,
So our God gives when He will;
Wait His pleasure and be still.
4 I can rest in thoughts of Him,
When all courage else grows dim,
For I know my soul shall prove
His is more than father's love.
5 Would the powers of ill affright.
I can smile at all their might;
Or the cross be pressing sore,
God, my God, lives evermore!
6 Man may hate me causelessly,
Man my plot to ruin me,
Foes my heart may pierce and rend;
God in heaven is still my Friend.
7 Earth against me may declare,
For her love I do not care;
Though the world bear me a grudge,
God my Father is my Judge.
8 Earth may all her gifts deny,
Safe my treasure is on high;
And if heaven at last be mine,
All things else I can resign.
9 I renounce thee willingly,
World, I hate what pleases thee;
Baneful every gift of thine,
Only be my God still mine.
10 Ah! Lord, if but Thee I have,
Naught of other good I crave,
Bright is even death's dark road,
If but Thou art there, my God! Topics: The Cross and Comfort Languages: English
Seems it in my anguish lone
