Trust and confidence; or, looking beyond present appearances

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCLXXXVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Confidence in God First Line: Away my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear! Let fear to me no more take place! My savior doth not yet appear, He hides the brightness of his face: But shall I therefore let him go, And basely to the tempter yield? No, in the strength of Jesus no! I never will give up the shield. 2 Altho' the vine its fruits deny, Altho' the olive yield no oil, The withering fig-tree droop and die, The field illude the tiller's toil; The empty stall no herd afford, And perish all the bleating race; Yet I will triumph in the Lord, The God of my salvation praise. 3 Away, each unbelieving fera, Let Fear to cheering hope give place; My Savior will at length appear, And shew the brightness of his face: Tho now my prospects all be crost, My blooming hopes cut off I see, Still will I in my Jesus trust, Whose boundless love can reach to me. 4 In hope, believing against hope, His promis'd mercy will I claim, His gracious word shall bear me up, To seek salvation in his name: Sure, my dear Savior, bring it nigh! My soul shall then outstrip the wind, On wings of love mount up on high, And leave the world and sin behind. Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18 Languages: English

Let peoples surround Thee and wait at Thy feet, While o'er them for judgment Thou takest Thy seat. 4 All nations of men shall be judged by the Lord; To me, O Jehovah, just judgment accord, As faithful and righteous in life I have been, And ever integrity cherished within. 5 Establish the righteous, let evil depart, For God Who is just tries the tho'ts of the heart. In God for defense I have placed all my trust; The upright He saves and He judges the just. 6 The Lord with the wicked is wroth every day, And if they repent not is ready to slay; By manifold ruin for others prepared They surely at last shall themselves be ensnared. 7 Because He is righteous His praise I will sing, Thanksgiving and honor to Him I will bring, Will sing to the Lord on Whose grace I rely, Extolling the Name of Jehovah Most High.
