[Why dost Thou, Lord, conceal Thy face]
Wherefore hidest Thou Thy face, and holdest, &c.
—xiii. 24.
Why dost Thou, Lord, conceal Thy face,
Withhold the joyous sense of grace,
And reckon me Thy foe?
If sin provokes Thee to depart,
And keeps Thy presence from my heart,
The secret evil show.
Withhold the joyous sense of grace,
And reckon me Thy foe?
If sin provokes Thee to depart,
And keeps Thy presence from my heart,
The secret evil show.
Still I inquire and weep, and pray;
Thy comforts dost Thou take away,
To punish, or to prove?
I wait Thy mind to comprehend,
I long to answer all the end
Of Thy mysterious love.
Thy comforts dost Thou take away,
To punish, or to prove?
I wait Thy mind to comprehend,
I long to answer all the end
Of Thy mysterious love.
