Beyond where Kedron's waters flow
So Melancholy Why, Poor Heart?
Meter: 8.8.6.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: So melancholy why, poor heart Lyrics: 1 So melancholy why, poor heart,
So heavy and so full of smart,
And still for earthly things?
Resign thee to the Lord thy God,
Who Heaven and the earth hath made.
2 Elijah, speak: Who gave thee bread,
When dearth and drought had overspread
Thy land for several years?
Did not the widow’s cruse supply
Her own and thy necessity?
3 When near the jun’per thou didst stay
God sent His messenger away
To furnish thee with food,
Which that uncommon vigor gave,
That thou couldst reach Mount Horeb’s cave.
4 Good Daniel: In the lion’s den
God ne’er forgot, tho’ left by men,
But sent His angel down
To seize the prophet’s harvest-mess
For His belovèd in distress.
5 Tho’ Joseph, into Egypt sold,
By Potiphar was laid in hold
For keeping God’s command:
God raised him up to great renown,
To save that nation and his own.
6 Did not the furnace lose its pow’r
When sev’n times heated, to devour
The three men in the flame?
God sent His angel to their aid,
And made the tyrant sore afraid.
7 Thy plenty, Lord, is still as great,
As ’twas in times of ancient date;
In Thee is all my trust,
Enrich my soul with faith and love,
Then have I everywhere enough. Used With Tune: KEDRON Text Sources: Probably 16th Century Polish or German; English tr.: A Collection of Hymns for the Children of God of All Ages (Part I) (London: 1754
