God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year

Author: Arthur Campbell Ainger (1841-1919) Meter: Irregular Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:11 Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out as year succeeds to year: God is working his purpose out, and the time is drawing near; nearer and nearer draws the time the time that shall surely be, when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. 2 From farthest east to farthest west, where human feet have trod, by the voice of many messengers goes forth the voice of God: 'Give ear to me, you continents, you islands give ear to me, that earth may be filled with the glory of God, as the waters cover the sea.' 3 Let us go forth in the strength of God, with the banner of Christ unfurled, that the light of the glorious gospel of truth may shine throughout the world: let us all fight with sorrow and sin, to set their captives free, that earth may be filled with the glory of God, as the waters cover the sea. 4 All that we do can have no worth, unless God bless the deed; vainly we hope for the harvest-tide, till God gives life to the seed; yet nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be, when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea.

Let us here confess you, till in heaven we bless you.
