Our salvation near

Author: A. M. Toplady Appears in 355 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 3:17 First Line: Your harps, ye trembling saints Lyrics: 1 Your harps, ye trembling saints, Down from the willows take: Loud to the praise of love divine Bid every string awake. 2 Though in a foreign land, We are not far from home; And nearer to our house above We every moment come. 3 His grace will to the end Stronger and brighter shine; Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the spark divine. 4 When we in darkness walk, Nor feel the heavenly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon his name. 5 Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at his control; His loving-kindness shall break through The midnight of the soul. 6 Blest is the man, O God, Who stays himself on thee; Who waits for thy salvation, Lord, Shall thy salvation see.

The covenant

Author: William Cowper Appears in 200 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 3:17 First Line: Hear what God the Lord hath spoken Lyrics: 1 Hear what God the Lord hath spoken: O my people, faint and few, Comfortless, afflicted, broken, Fair abodes I build for you; Scenes of heartfelt tribulation Shall no more perplex your ways; You shall name your walls "Salvation," And your gates shall all be "Praise." 2 There, like streams that feed the garden, Pleasures without end shall flow; For the Lord, your faith rewarding, All his bounty shall bestow. Still in undisturbed possession Peace and righteousness shall reign; Never shall you feel oppression, Hear the voice of war again. 3 Ye, no more your suns descending, Waning moon no more shall see, But, your griefs for ever ending, Find eternal noon in me. God shall rise, and shining o'er you, Change to day the gloom of night; He, the Lord, shall be your Glory, God, your everlasting Light.

Resting in God

Author: fr. K. R. Hagenbach Appears in 42 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 3:17 First Line: Since thy Father's arm sustains thee Lyrics: 1 Since thy Father's arm sustains thee, Peaceful be; When a chastening hand restrains thee, It is he! Know his love in full completeness Fills the measure of thy weakness; If he wound thy spirit sore, Trust him more. 2 Without murmur, uncomplaining, In his hand Lay whatever things thou canst not Understand: Though the world thy folly spurneth, From thy faith in pity turneth, Peace thy inmost soul shall fill-- Lying still. 3 Fearest sometimes that thy Father Hath forgot? When the clouds around thee gather, Doubt him not! Always hath the daylight broken-- Always hath he comfort spoken-- Better hath he been for years, Than thy fears. 4 To his own thy Saviour giveth Daily strength; To each troubled soul that liveth Peace at length: Weakest lambs have largest sharing Of this tender Shepherd's caring; Ask him not, then--when or how-- Only bow.
