Why should cross and trial grieve me?

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Kelly Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #506 (1961) Meter: 8.3.3.6.8.3.3.6 Topics: Longing for Christ and God Lyrics: 1 Why should cross and trial grieve me? Christ is near With his cheer; Never will he leave me.

God is good and tempers ever All my ill, And he will Wholly leave me never. 3 Death cannot destroy for ever; From our fears, Cares, and tears It will us deliver. It will close life's mournful story, Make a way That we may Enter heav'nly glory. 4 Lord, my Shepherd, take me to thee. Thou art mine; I was thine, Even ere I knew thee. I am thine, for thou hast bought me; Lost I stood, But thy blood Free salvation brought me. 5 Thou art mine; I love and own thee. Light of Joy, Ne'er shall I From my heart dethrone thee. Saviour, let me soon behold thee Face to face,— May thy grace Evermore enfold me! Amen. Scripture: Psalm 73:23-24 Languages: English Tune Title: WARUM SOLLT' ICH MICH DENN GRÄMEN

Hope thou in God, and him extol, who gives his saving help to me, who gives his saving help to me. Scripture: Psalm 42:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: BACA
