O God, of good the unfathomed Sea!

Who would not give his heart to Thee? Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite? 2. Thou shin'st with everlasting rays; Before the insufferable blaze Angels with both wings veil their eyes; Yet, free as air Thy bounty streams On all Thy works; Thy mercy's beams Diffusive, as Thy sun's, arise. 3. High throned on heaven's eternal hill, In number, weight, and measure still Thou sweetly orderest all that is: And yet Thou deign'st to come to me, And guide my steps, that I, with Thee Enthroned, may reign in endless bliss. 4. Fountain of good, all blessing flows From Thee; no want Thy fulness knows; What but Thyself canst Thou Yet, self-sufficient as Thou art, Thou dost desire my worthless heart; This, only this, dost Thou require. 5. O God, of good the unfathomed Sea! Who would not give his heart to Thee? Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite? Languages: English Tune Title: LUCERNE

O Sing Ye Hallelujah

Lyrics: 1 O sing ye Hallelujah! ’Tis good our God to praise; ’Tis pleasant and becoming To Him our songs to raise; He builds the walls of Zion, He seeks her wandering sons, He binds their wounds and comforts the brokenhearted ones. 2 The starry hosts He numbers, He calls them all by name; His greatness and His wisdom His wondrous works proclaim; The meek He lifts to honor, He humbles sinful pride. Give thanks to Him and utter His praises far and wide. 3 The heavens with clouds He covers, He sends the cheering rain; The slopes of all the mountains He fills with grass and grain; To beast and bird His goodness their daily food supplies; He cares for all His creatures, Attentive to their cries. 4 No human power delights Him, No earthly pomp or pride; He loves the meek who fear Him and in His love confide; Then praise thy God, O Zion, His gracious aid confess; He gives thee peace and plenty, His gifts thy children bless. 5 He sends His swift commandment, And snow and ice enfold The world, and none are able To stand before His cold. Again He gives commandment; The winds of summer blow, The snow and ice are melted, Again the waters flow. 6 His statutes and His judgments He makes His people know; To them as to no others His grace He loves to show; For matchless grace and mercy Your grateful praises bring; To Him give thanks forever, And Hallelujah sing.

God Moves In a Mysterious Way

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #445 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Works of God Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill, He treasures up His bright designs, And works His sovereign will. 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. 4 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 5 Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan His work in vain; God is His own Interpreter, And He will make it plain.

I Thought upon the Days of Old

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #155 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Works of God Lyrics: 1 I thought upon the days of old, The years departed long, I held communion with my heart, By night recalled my song. 2 My heart inquired with anxious care, Will God forever spurn? Shall we no more His favor see? Will mercy ne'er return? 3 Forever shall His promise fail? Has God forgotten grace? Has He withdrawn His tender love, In anger hid His face? 4 These doubts are my infirmity, My thoughts at once reply; I call back years of God's right hand, The years of God Most High. 5 I will commemorate, O Lord, Thy wondrous deeds of old, And meditate upon Thy works Of power and grace untold. 6 O God, most holy is Thy way, Most perfect, good, and right; Thou art the only living God, The God of wondrous might.
