Creatures vain, and God All sufficient

Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: Creation and Providence; God his creation and providence; Praise for creation and providence; Providence and creation; Creation and Providence; God his creation and providence; Praise for creation and providence; Providence and creation First Line: Blest is the nation, where the Lord Lyrics: 1 Blest is the nation, where the Lord Hath fix'd his gracious throne? Where he reveals his heavenly word, And calls their tribes his own. 2 His eye, with infinite survey, Does the whole world behold; He form'd us all of equal clay, And knows our feeble mould. 3 Kings are not rescued by the force Of armies from the grave; Nor speed nor courage of an horse Can his bold rider save. 4 Vain is the strength of beasts or men, Nor springs our safety thence; But holy souls from God obtain A strong and sure defence. 5 God is their fear, and God their trust: When plagues or famine spread, His watchful eye secures the just, Among ten thousand dead. 6 Lord, let our hearts in thee rejoice, And bless us from thy throne; For we have made thy word our choice, And trust thy grace alone. Scripture: Psalm 33

Give Thanks to GOD: He reigns above

Appears in 129 hymnals Topics: Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 Give Thanks to GOD; He reigns above, Kind are his Thoughts, his Name is Love; His Mercy Ages past have known, And Ages long to come shall own. 2 Let the Redeemed of the Lord The Wonders of his Grace record; Isr'el, the Nation whom he chose, And rescu'd from their mighty Foes. 3 [When GOD's Almighty Arm had broke Their Fetters and th' Egyptian Yoke, They trac'd the Desart, wand'ring round A wild and solitary Ground! 4 There they could find no leading Road, Nor City for a fix'd Abode; Nor Food nor Fountain to asswage Their burning Thirst or Hunger's Rage.] 5 In their Distress to GOD they cry'd; GOD was their Saviour and their Guide; He led their March far wand'ring round; 'Twas the right Path to Canaan's Ground. 6 Thus when our first Release we gain From Sin's old Yoke, and Satan's Chain, We have this desert World to pass, A dangerous and a tiresome Place. 7 He feeds and clothes us all the Way, He guides our Footsteps, lest we stray; He guards us with a pow'rful Hand, And brings us to the heav'nly Land. 8 O let the Saints with joy record The Truth and Goodness of the Lord! How great his Works! how kind his Ways! Let ev'ry Tongue pronounce his Praise. Scripture: Psalm 107

Scripture: Psalm 19
