SUPPLICATION.
    373               C. M.
            Refuge in God the saints’ privilege.
    1  FA EAR refuge of my weary soul,
       L-' On thee, when sorrows rise,
      On thee when waves of trouble roll,
        My fainting hope relies.
    2  To thee I tell each rising grief,
        For thou alone canst heal;
      Thy word can bring a sweet relief
        For every pain I feel.
    3  Hast thou not bid me seek thy face?
        And shall I seek in vain ?
      And can the ear of sovereign grace
        Be deaf when I complain ?
     4  No ! still the ear of sovereign grace
        Attends the mourner’s prayer;
      0 may I ever find access
        To breath my sorrows there !
     5  Thy mercy-seat is open still;
        Here let my soul retreat;
      With humble hope attend thy will,
        And wait beneath thy feet.
     374              C. M.
                    Remember me.
     1  fA THOU from whom all goodness flows,
       'o' I lift my heart to thee ;
      In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes,
        Dear Lord, remember me.
     2  Whene’er on my poor burdened heart
        My sins lie heavily ;
      My pardon speak, new peace impart,
        In love remember me.
