A Prayer of the sick Soul
Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CXLI (1799) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Prayer Of the sick soul; Prayer Of the sick soul First Line: Thou great Physician of the soul Lyrics: 1 Thou great Physician of the soul,
To thee I bring my case;
My raging malady control,
And heal me by thy grace.
2 Help me to state my whole complaint,
But where shall I begin?
Nor words, nor thoughts, can fully paint
That worst distemper, sin.
3 It lies not in a single part,
But through my frame is spread;
A burning fever in my heart,
A palsy in my head.
4 It makes me deaf, and dumb, and blind,
And impotent and lame;
It overclouds, and fills my mind,
With folly, fear, and shame.
5 A thousand evil thoughts intrude,
Tumultuous in my breast;
Which indispose me for my food,
And rob me of my rest.
6 Lord, I am sick, regard my cry,
And set my spirit free;
Say, canst thou let a sinner die,
Who longs to live to thee.

A Prayer of the sick Soul
Oh, why are you cast down, my soul?
Author: Wm. Rinehart Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #730 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian to his Soul Lyrics: 1 Oh, why art thou cast down, my soul?
Why sunk within me so?
Hope thou in God--he is thy Guide
And Guardian here below.
2 Has not the Saviour died for thee,
And shed his precious blood?
Has he not groaned on Calvary,
To bring thee home to God?
3 Then why art thou cast down, my soul?
Shake off thy gloomy fears;
Thy toils and conflicts soon shall end
In this dark vale of tears.
4 What though the powers of earth and hell
Against thee should combine?
Amidst thy conflicts, O my soul,
A glorious hope is thine.
5 This world and all created things
In ruins soon shall lie;
But thou, my soul, shalt dwell secure,
Beyond the starry sky.
6 There thou shalt rest with Christ above,
Where he, eternal, reigns,
And ever sing redeeming love
With sweet, angelic strains.
Oh, why are you cast down, my soul?
Divine light breaking into the soul

The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing on his wings;
When comforts are declining,
He grants the soul again
A season of clear shining,
To chear it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation,
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new:
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
E'en let th' unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing
But he will bear us thro'
Who gives the lilies cloathing,
Will clothe his people too:
Beneath the spreading heavens
No creature but is fed;
And he who feeds the ravens,
Will give his children bread.
4 Tho' vine nor fig-tree neither
Their wonted fruit shall bear,
Tho' all the fields should wither,
Nor flocks nor herds be there:
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice;
For while in him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Languages: English

Dear Refuge of my weary soul
Author: Steele Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #628 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Soul's Refuge Lyrics: 1 Dear Refuge of my weary soul,
On thee, when sorrows rise,
On thee, when waves of trouble roll,
My fainting hope relies.

For thou alone canst heal;
Thy word can bring a sweet relief
For every pain I feel.

I fear to call thee mine;
The springs of comfort seem to fail,
And all my hopes decline.
4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee?
Thou art my only trust;
And still my soul would cleave to thee,
Though prostrate in the dust.
5 Thy mercy-seat is open still,
Here let my soul retreat,
With humble hope attend thy will,
And wait beneath thy feet. Scripture: Job 13:15

Is desolate and low.

Look on my Anguish and my Pain,
And pardon all my Sins.

How cruel is their Hate?
Against my Life they rise, and join
Their Fury with Deceit.

Nor put my Hope to Shame;

In my Redeemer's Name.
8 With humble Faith I wait
To see thy Face again;
Of Isr'el it shall ne'er be said,
He sought the Lord in vain.

Fix'd on thy everlasting word,
That word which built the earth and sky?

Then my immortal life is sure;
His word a firm foundation gives,
Here, let me build, and rest secure.

Immoveable the promise stands;
Nor all the powers of earth, or hell,
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands.
5 Here, O my soul, thy trust repose;
If Jesus is for ever mine,
Not death itself, that last of foes,
Shall break a union so divine.

Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.

Have spurned to-day the voice divine,

Let him no more lie down in sin.

With blessings from Thy boundless store;

Ere through the world our way we take;
Till, in the ocean of Thy love,
We lose ourselves in heaven above.
