Come, let us to the Lord our God

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 108 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God with contrite hearts return; our God is gracious, nor will leave the desolate to mourn. 2 His voice commands the tempest forth, and stills the stormy wave; and though his arm be strong to smite, 'tis also strong to save. 3 Long hath the night of sorrow reigned; the dawn shall bring us light; God shall appear, and we shall rise with gladness in his sight. 4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know, shall know him and rejoice; his coming like the morn shall be, like morning songs his voice. 5 As dew upon the tender herb, diffusing fragrance round; as show'rs that usher in the spring, and cheer the thirsty ground. 6 So shall his presence bless our souls, and shed a joyful light; that hallow'd morn shall chase away the sorrows of the night. Scripture: Hosea 6:1-4 Used With Tune: ST AGNES, DURHAM

O That I Knew the Secret Place

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 221 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O that I knew the secret place Where I might find my God! I'd spread my wants before His face, And pour my woes abroad. 2 I'd tell Him how my sins arise, What sorrows I sustain, How grace decays, and comfort dies, And leaves my heart in pain. 3 He knows what arguments I'd take To wrestle with my God; I'd plead for His own mercy's sake, And for my Savior's blood. 4 My God will pity my complaints, And heal my broken bones; He takes the meaning of His saints, The language of their groans. 5 Arise, my soul, from deep distress, And banish every fear; He calls thee to His throne of grace, To spread thy sorrows there.
