Psalm 25

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Courage and Cheer First Line: Mine eyes and my desire Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes are my desire Are ever to the Lord; I love to plead his promises, And rest upon his word. 2 Lord, turn to thee my soul; Bring thy salvation near; When will thy hand release my feet From sin's destructive snare? 3 When shall the sovereign grace Of my forgiving God Restore me from those dangerous ways My wandering feet have trod? 4 Oh, keep my soul from death, Nor put my hope to shame! For I have placed my only trust In my Redeemer's name. 5 With humble faith I wait To see thy face again; Of Israel it shall ne'er be said, He sought the Lord in vain. Used With Tune: LEIGHTON

"Songs in the night"

Author: Anon. Appears in 144 hymnals Topics: Courage and Cheer First Line: My life flows on in endless song Lyrics: 1 My life flows on in endless song; Above earth's lamentation, I catch the sweet, though far-off, hymn That hails a new creation; Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul How can I keep from singing? 2 What though my joys and comforts die? The Lord my Saviour liveth; What though the darkness gather round? Songs in the night be giveth; No storm can shake my inmost calm, While to that refuge clinging; Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing? 3 I lift my eyes; the cloud grows thin; I see the blue above it; And day by day this pathway smooths, Since first I learned to love it; The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart, A fountain ever springing; All things are mine since I am his How can I keep from singing? Used With Tune: MY LIFE FLOWS ON

The battle ne'er give o'er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. 3 Ne'er think the victory won, Nor lay thine armor down; Thine arduous work will not be done, Till thou obtain thy crown. 4 Fight on, my soul, till death Shall bring thee to thy God! He'll take thee at thy parting breath, Up to his blest abode. Used With Tune: LABAN
