Canst thou thy face for ever hide, And I still pray, and be denied? Shall I for ever be forgot, As one whom thou regardest not Still shall my soul thine absence mourn, And still despair of thy return? How long shall my poor troubled breast Be with these anxious thoughts oppressed? And Satan, my malicious foe, Rejoice to see me sunk so low? Hear, Lord, and grant me quick relief, Before my death conclude my grief: If thou withhold thy heav'nly light, I sleep in everlasting night. How will the powers of darkness boast, If but one praying soul be lost! But I have trusted in thy grace, And shall again behold thy face. Whate'er my fears or foes suggest, Thou art my hope, my joy, my rest; My heart shall feel thy love, and raise My cheerful voice to songs of praise. Scripture: Psalm 13

Take thou my cup, and it With joy or sorrow fill, As best to thee may seem; Choose thou my good and ill. 3 Choose thou for me my friends, My sickness or my health; Choose thou my cares for me, My poverty or wealth. Not mine, not mine the choice, In things or great or small; Be thou my Guide, my Strength, My Wisdom and my All. Used With Tune: JEWETT

Appears in 61 hymnals Topics: Afflictions moderated; Grace Tried by Affliction; Saints afflictions moderated; Afflictions moderated; Grace Tried by Affliction; Saints afflictions moderated First Line: Firm and unmov'd are they Lyrics: 1 Firm and unmov'd are they That rest their souls on God: Firm as the mount where David dwelt, Or where the ark abode. 2 As mountains stood to guard The city's sacred ground, So God and his almighty love Embrace his saints around. 3 What though the Father's rod Drop a chastising stroke, Yet lest it wound their souls too deep, Its fury shall be broke. 4 Deal gently, Lord, with those Whose faith and pious fear, Whose hope, and love, and every grace Proclaim their hearts sincere. 5 Nor shall the tyrant's rage Too long oppress the saints; The God of Israel will support His children, lest they faint. 7 But if our slavish fear Will choose the road to hell, We must expect our portion there Where bolder sinners dwell. Scripture: Psalm 125
