HYMN 77.
Mine eyes and my desire
Are ever to the Lord;
I love to plead His promises,
And rest upon His word.
When shall the sov'reign grace
Of my forgiving God
Restore me from those dangerous ways
My wand'ring feet have trod?
O keep my soul from death,
Nor put my hope to shame;
For I have plac'd my only trust
In my Redeemer's name.
With humble faith I wait.
To see Thy face again;
Of Israel it shall ne'er be said,
He sought the Lord in vain.
