CANT. VIII. 3.
His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.
HYMN 131.
MY work is great: O stay my head;Infuse that Wisdom from above:And let thy strength my weakness wed,And with infirm'ty fall in Love.My head is sick, my heart is faint;As overpow'rd with my task:I thee with all my Grief acquant,And thy Assistance humbly ask.The left and right hand of thy Pow'r;Outward and inward help must give:Thy arms about me in this hour,Embrace me must, and make me live.O, my Redeemer, with thy ArmsRefresh the heart of fainting me.Let me experience thy Love-charms,Till I am more in love with thee.Then shall my Charets run a pace;No rubs shall hinder their swift motion:The Wheels anointed with thy Grace,As Ships ride fast upon the Ocean.
descriptionPage 187
Thus the warm hand on aking head,And circling Arms about the loyns,Revives a man that lies half dead,And under difficulties pines.
