letra de dunstable - william billings

Loading...

with earnest longings of the mind
my god, to thee i look;
so pants the hunted hart to find
and taste the cooling brook

when shall i see thy courts of grace
and meet my god again?
so long an absence from thy face
my heart endures with pain

temptations vex my weary soul
and tears are my repast;
the foe insults without control
“and where’s your god at last?”
’tis with a mournful pleasure now
i think on ancient days;
then to thy house did numbers go
and all our work was praise

but why, my soul, sunk down so far
beneath this heavy load?
why do my thoughts indulge despair
and sin against my god?

hope in the lord, whose mighty hand
can all thy woes remove
for i shall yet before him stand
and sing restoring love
