O Zion, Afflicted with Wave upon Wave
Author: James Grant Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 95 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Zion, afflicted with wave upon wave,
Whom no mortal power can succor or save;
With sickness surrounded, by terrors dismayed,
In toiling and watching, thy strength is decayed.
2. Loud roaring and swelling, the billows o’erwhelm,
But skillful’s the Pilot that sits at the helm;
His wisdom conducts thee, His power thee defends,
In safety and quiet thy warfare He ends.
3. O fearful, O faithless, in mercy He cries,
“My promise, My truth, are they small in thine eyes?
Still, still I am with thee, My promise shall stand,
Through tempest and tossing, I’ll bring thee to land.
4. “Forget thee, I will not, I cannot, thy name
Engraved on My heart doth for ever remain;
The palms of My hands, whilst I look on I see
The wounds I received when I suffered for thee.
5. “Then trust Me, and fear not, thy life is secure,
My wisdom is perfect, supreme is My power;
In love I correct thee, thy soul to refine,
And cause thee at length in My likeness to shine.
6. The doubting, the fearful, the weak are My care,
The helpless, the hopeless, I hear their sad prayer;
From all their afflictions, My glory shall spring,
The deeper their sorrows, the louder they’ll sing. Used With Tune: ST. DENIO Text Sources: Original Hymns and Poems, Written by a Private Christian for His Own Use, and Published at the Earnest Desire of Friends (Edinburgh, Scotland: 1784), number 16

In seasons of grief to my God
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 90 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
In seasons of grief to my God I'll repair,
When my heart is o'erwhelmed in sorrow and care;
From the ends of the earth unto thee will I cry,
"Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I"
2.
When Satan, my foe, comes in like a flood,
To drive my poor soul from the fountain of good,
I'll pray to the Savior who kindly did cry,
"Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I"
3.
And when I have ended my pilgrimage here,
In Jesus' pure righteousness let me appear:
From the swellings of Jordan to thee will I cry:
"Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I"
4.
And when the last trumpet shall sound through the skies,
And the dead from the dust of the earth shall arise,
With millions I'll join, far above yonder sky,
To praise the Great Rock that is higher than I.

Summer Suns Are Glowing

Happy light is flowing, bountiful and free;
Everything rejoices in the mellow rays;
Earth’s ten thousand voices swell the psalm of praise.
2. God’s free mercy streameth over all the world,
And His banner gleameth, by His church unfurled;
Broad and deep and glorious, as the heaven above,
Shines in might victorious His eternal love.
3. Lord, upon our blindness Thy pure radiance pour;
For Thy lovingkindness we would love Thee more;
And when clouds are drifting dark across the sky,
Then, the veil uplifting, Father, be Thou nigh.
4. We will never doubt Thee, though Thou veil Thy light;
Life is dark without Thee, death with Thee is bright;
Light of light, shine o’er us on our pilgrim way;
Go Thou still before us to the endless day. Used With Tune: RUTH (Smith) Text Sources: Church Hymns, Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1871

Our Lord, You Were Sent
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Our Lord, You were seent to a place wild and vast Lyrics: Our Lord, you were sent to a place wild and vast
To ponder your mission, to pray and to fast;
Then hungry and weary, you faced night and day
The subtle temptations to turn from God’s way.
How could it be wrong to want bread on the shelf?
To seek, in one’s serving, to first serve one’s self?
But by God’s own word you remained ever sure:
It’s only in God that our lives are secure.
How could it be wrong to step out and to dare,
To prove with great drama the depths of God’s care?
But you knew God’s word, true since all time began:
It’s wrong to expect God to work by our plan.
How could it be wrong to just once bow the knee,
To shake hands with sin to achieve victory?
Yet you made it clear that no matter the cost:
Your path was obedience, your way was the cross.
Our Lord, in your struggle you chose to obey;
God’s word filled your heart and you trusted God’s way.
Now risen, you save us from sins that destroy;
You give us your Spirit, your peace and your joy.
