The Seasons Are Fixed by Wisdom Divine

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #219 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Seasons Lyrics: 1 The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine, The slow changing moon show forth God’s design; The sun in his circuit his Maker obeys, And running his journey hastes not nor delays. 2 The Lord makes the night, when, leaving their lair, The lions creep forth, God’s bounty to share; The Lord makes the morning, when beasts steal away And men are beginning the work of the day. 3 How many and wise Thy works are, O Lord! The earth with the wealth of wisdom is stored; The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro, And creatures unnumbered it shelters below. 4 Thy creatures all look to Thee for their food; Thy hand opens wide, they gather the good; Thy face Thou concealest, in anguish they yearn; Their breath Thou withholdest, to dust they return. 5 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. 6 Before the Lord’s might earth trembles and quakes, The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks; The Lord I will worship through all of my days, Yea, while I have being my God I will praise. 7 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

By thee the seasons change, and all The changing seasons speak thy name. 2 Thy bounty bids the infant year, From winter storms recover'd, rise; When thousand grateful scenes appear, Fresh op'ning to our wand'ring eyes. 3 O how delightful 'tis to see The earth in vernal beauty dress'd! While in each herb, and flow'r, and tree, Thy blooming glories shine confess'd! 4 Aloft, full beaming, reigns the sun, And light and genial heat conveys; And, while he leads the seasons on, From thee derives his quick'ning rays. 5 Around us, in the teeming field, Stands the rich grain or purpled vine; At thy command they rise, to yield The strength'ning bread or cheering wine. 6 Indulgent God! from ev'ry part Thy plenteous blessings largely flow; We see; we taste;--let ev'ry heart With grateful love and duty glow.

Great God, as seasons disappear

Author: Campbell Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #980 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Seasons Lyrics: 1 Great God, as seasons disappear, And changes mark the rolling year, As time with rapid pinions flies, May every season make us wise. 2 Long has thy favor crowned our days, And summer shed again its rays; No deadly cloud our sky has vailed; No blasting winds our path assailed. 3 Our harvest months have o'er us rolled, And filled our fields with waving gold; Our tables spread, our garners stored! Where are our hearts to praise the Lord? 4 The solemn harvest comes apace, The closing day of life and grace: Time of decision, awful hour! Around it let no tempests lower! 5 Prepare us, Lord, by grace divine, Like stars in heaven to rise and shine; Then shall our happy souls above Reap the full harvest of thy love!
