God Is Working This Purpose Out

Author: Arthur C. Ainger Meter: Irregular Appears in 96 hymnals Topics: Confessing Faith Lyrics: 1 God is working this purpose out, as year succeeds to year; God is working this purpose out, and the time is drawing near; nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be: when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. 2 From utmost east to utmost west, where human feet have trod, by the mouth of many messengers goes forth the voice of God: “Give ear to me, ye continents, ye isles, give ear to me, that the earth may be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea.” 3 Let us go forth in the strength of God, with the banner of Christ unfurled, that the light of the glorious gospel of truth may shine throughout the world. Let us all fight with sorrow and sin to set the captives free, that the earth may be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. 4 All we can do is nothing worth unless God blesses the deed. Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide till God gives life to the seed. Yet nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be, when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. Scripture: Psalm 127:1-2 Used With Tune: PURPOSE Text Sources: Church Missionary Hymn Book, 1899, alt.

There is no man nor creature here, No angel in the heavenly sphere, Who in my need can succor me; I cry to Thee, For Thee I trust implicitly. 2 My sin is sore and very great, I mourn beneath its grievous load; O free me from this heavy weight, My Saviour, through Thy precious blood; And with Thy Father for me plead That Thou hast suffered in my stead; From me the burden then is rolled. Lord, I lay hold On Thy dear promises of old. 3 And of Thy mercy now bestow True Christian faith on me, O Lord! That all the sweetness I may know Which in Thy holy cross is stored; Love Thee o'er earthly pride or pelf, And love my neighbor as myself; And when at last is come my end, Be Thou my friend, From Satan’s wiles my soul defend. 4 Glory to God in highest heaven, The Father of eternal love; To His dear Son, for sinners given, Whose watchful grace we daily prove; To God the Holy Ghost on high,-- O ever be His comfort nigh, And teach us, free from sin and fear, To please Him here, And serve Him in the sinless sphere.
