Hymn Context Compare
Out of the depths to Thee I cry,
There is a great Phy­si­cian near;
Far off ap­pears my rest­ing place,
Who knows the joy­ful sound.
Help to give the wea­ry rest.
Thine im­age all di­vine;
Salvation taste;
The vi­tal sa­vor of His name
And Thy free Spir­it’s firm sup­port
In ev­ery qui­et up­per room
Truehearted with Jes­us our glo­ri­ous king,
Under a whole world of woe.
From the des­ert paths of sin.
The wa­ter of His Word
The stone is rolled away,
Only a word, yet the Mas­ter heard,
Heir of ev­ery hope that Time
Let me drink and quench my thirst;
start
But the sign of their God was ev­er near,

faint­ing

The paths of our hu­man­ity,
See, in His heav’n­ly smiles ap­pear
Then, Sav­ior, plead for me.
Are free­ly wel­come here;
If but words we have to give;
And seal it ev­er Thine.
Fair Morn­ing-Star, arise,
But un­belief per­verts the same
To God the Fa­ther, Son,
The bread is al­ways con­se­crate
Our song of al­le­giance we joy­ful­ly sing,
By Thy dread­ful death, I pray,
Who has hea­vy griefs to bear;
Fear not! be not dis­mayed,
Satan and Pi­late’s watch­men,
Only a word, on­ly a word,
Aspirations pure and high,
In Thy sha­dow let me rest.
To where the morn­ing lights the skies!
All the days of their wan­d’rings they were fed,
