O God, our strength, to thee the song
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Christian Worship. 16th ed. #90 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Attributes and Providence of God Unity of God Scripture: Psalm 81 Languages: English
O God, our strength, to thee the song
There's a wideness in God's mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #93 (1886) Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There's a kindness in his justice,
Which is more than liberty.
2 There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Saviour;
There is healing in his blood.
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measure of man's mind,
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
4 If our love were but more simple,
We should take him at his word;
and our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord. Tune Title: WELLESLEY
There's a wideness in God's mercy
Father of spirits! Nature's God
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Christian Worship. 16th ed. #106 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Attributes and Providence of God Omnipresence and omniscience of God Scripture: Psalm 139 Languages: English
Father of spirits! Nature's God
Thy ways, O Lord with wise design
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: Hymns for Christian Devotion #148 (1871) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Character, Attributes, and Providence of God Languages: English
Thy ways, O Lord with wise design
There is a book that all may read
Author: John Keble Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #80 (1886) Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Lyrics: 1 There is a book that all may read,
Which heavenly truth imparts;
And all the lore its scholars need,
And all the lore its scholars need,
Pure eyes and Christian hearts.
2 The works of God above, below,
Within us, and around,
Are pages in that book, to show
How God himself is found.
3 The glorious sky, embracing all,
Is like the Maker's love,
Wherewith encompassed, great and small,
In peace and order move.
4 The dew of heaven is like thy grace,
It steals in silence down;
But where it falls, the favored place
By richest fruits is known.
5 Thou who has given me eyes to see,
And love for what is fair,
Give me a heart to find out thee,
And read thee everywhere. Tune Title: WOODLAND
There is a book that all may read
Thy ways, O Lord! with wise design
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #84 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Providence of God Lyrics: 1 Thy ways, O Lord! with wise design,
Are fram'd upon thy throne above,
And every dark or bending line
Meets in the centre of thy love.
2 With feeble light, and half obscure,
Poor mortals thy arrangements view;
Not knowing that they all are sure,
And, the mysterious, just and true.
3 Thy flock, thy own peculiar care,
Though now they seem to roam uney'd
Are led or driven only where
They best and safest may abide.
4 They neither know nor trace the way:
But whilst they trust thy guardian eye,
Their feet shall ne'er to ruin stray,
Nor shall the weakest fail or die.
5 My favour'd soul shall meekly learn
To lay her reason at thy throne;
Too weak thy secrets to discern,
I'll trust thee for my guide alone.
Thy ways, O Lord! with wise design
The eagle fond her charge awakes
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #85 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Providence of God Lyrics: 1 The eagle fond her charge awakes
Where in the nest they doze;
And while her flutt'ring plumes she shakes
The way to fly she shows;
She spreads her wings, her young to bear,
Before their own thy try;
And takes them up, and cleaves the air;
And soars above the sky.
2 'Twas thus in nature's sleep I lay,
When Christ the Spirit shed,
His Spirit stirr'd me up to pray,
And hover'd o'er my head,
Infusing the first gracious hope
He spread his wings abroad,
And train'd his infant pupil up
To seek the face of God.
3 The object of his kindest care
He never yet forsook,
But did himself my weakness bear,
And all my burthen took;
He bore me up, from earth he bore
On wings of heav'nly love,
And taught my unfledg'd soul to soar
To those bright realms above.
4 The Spirit of redeeming grace
Hath been my sure defence,
And through the pathless wilderness
Led on my innocence:
When simple as a little child
All idols I abhorr'd,
And saw as my Redeemer smil'd,
My Paradise restor'd.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 32:11
The eagle fond her charge awakes
Almighty Father, gracious Lord
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #87 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Providence of God Lyrics: 1 Almighty Father, gracious Lord,
Kind guardian of my days,
Thy mercies let my heart record
In songs of grateful praise.
2 In life's first dawn, my tender frame
Was thy indulgent care,
Long ere I could pronounce thy name,
Or breathe the infant prayer.
3 Each rolling year new favours brought
From thy exhaustless store;
But, ah! in vain my labouring thought
Would count thy mercies o'er.
4 While sweet reflection, through my days,
Thy bounteous hand would trace,
Still dearer blessings claim thy praise,
The blessings of thy grace.
5 Yes, I adore, thee, gracious Lord!
For favours more divine;
That I have known thy sacred word,
Where all thy glories shine.
6 Lord, when this mortal frame decays,
And every weakness dies,
Complete the wonders of thy grace,
And raise me to the skies. Scripture: Psalm 139
Almighty Father, gracious Lord
God is love; his mercy brightens
Author: Sir John Bowring Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #92 (1886) Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Lyrics: 1 God is love; his mercy brightens
All the path in which we rove;
Bliss he wakes, and woe he lightens:
God is wisdom, God is love.
2 Chance and change are busy ever;
Man decays, and ages move;
But his mercy waneth never:
God is wisdom, God is love.
3 E'en the hour that darkest seemeth,
Will his changeless goodness prove;
From the gloom his brightness streameth:
God is wisdom, God is love.
4 He with earthly cares entwineth
Hope and comfort from above;
Everywhere his glory shineth:
God is wisdom, God is love. Tune Title: WELLESLEY
God is love; his mercy brightens
