Thou Great Mysterious God Unknown

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 84 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thou great mysterious God unknown, Whose love hath gently led me on, E’en from my infant days, Mine inmost soul expose to view, And tell me if I ever knew Thy justifying grace, Thy justifying grace. 2. If I have only known Thy fear, And followed, with a heart sincere, Thy drawings from above, Now, let the further grace bestow, And let my sprinkled conscience know Thy sweet forgiving love, Thy sweet forgiving love. 3. Father, in me reveal Thy Son, And to my inmost soul make known How merciful Thou art; The secret of Thy love reveal, And by Thy hallowing Spirit dwell Forever in my heart, Forever in my heart! 4. If now the witness were in me, Would He not testify of Thee, In Jesus reconciled? And should I not with faith draw nigh, And boldly, Abba, Father, cry, And know myself Thy child, And know myself Thy child? Used With Tune: ARIEL Text Sources: Redemption Hymns, 1747

Fret Not Thyself

Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: Fret not thyself, nor envious be Lyrics: 1 Fret not thyself, nor envious be, when wicked workers thou shalt see, who prosper in their way; for like the grass they perish soon, and, like the herb cut down at noon, they wither in a day, they wither in a day. 2 Trust in the LORD and still do well, within the land securely dwell, feed on His faithfulness; delight thee also in the LORD, and to thy heart He will accord the good it would possess, the good it would possess. 3 Yea, to the LORD thy way is known; confide in Him who on the throne abides in pow'r divine; thy righteousness He shall display; resplendent as the light of day, it shall unclouded shine, it shall unclouded shine. 4 Rest in the Lord and be thou still, with patience wait His holy will, enduring to the end. Fret not tho' sinners’ gains increase; forsake thy wrath, from anger cease; it will to evil tend, it will to evil tend. 5 Yea, thou shalt soon consider well the place where they were wont to dwell, and it shall not be found; but saints shall all the land possess, and find delight and happiness where fruits of peace abound, where fruits of peace abound. 6 He knows the days the perfect live, to them a heritage will give which ever shall abide; in evil times no shame they know, and in the days of famine's woe they shall be satisfied, they shall be satisfied. 7 The good man's steps are led aright, his way is pleasing in GOD's sight, established it shall stand; he shall not perish though he fall, the mighty LORD who rules o'er all upholds him with His hand, upholds him with His hand. 8 Though I am old who young have been, no saint have I forsaken seen, nor yet his home in need; he ever lends in gracious ways, his life true charity displays, his sons are blest indeed, his sons are blest indeed.
