How mighty is his hand! Heav'n, earth and sea, he fram'd alone; How wide is his command! 3 The sun supplies the day with light; How bright his counsels shine! The moon and stars adorn the night; His works are all divine! 4 [He struck the sons of Egypt dead; How dreadful is his rod! And thence with joy his people led: How gracious is our God! 5 He cleft the swelling sea in two; His arm is great in might; And gave the tribes a passage thro'; His pow'r and grace unite. 6 But Pharaoh's army there he drown'd: How glorious are his ways! And brought his saints thro' desert ground; Eternal be his praise. 7 Great monarchs fell beneath his hand; Victorious is his sword; While Isra'l took the promis'd land; And faithful is his word.] 8 He saw the nations dead in sin; He felt his pity move: How sad the state the world was in! How boundless was his love! 9 He sent to save us from our woe; His goodness never fails; From death and hell, and ev'ry foe; And still his grace prevails. 10 Give thanks to God the heav'nly King; His mercies still endure: Let the whole earth his praises sing; His truth is ever sure.

Now to the power of God supreme

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 90 hymnals Topics: God his being, attributes, and providence Lyrics: Now to the power of God supreme Be everlasting honors giv'n; He saves from hell, (we bless his name,) He calls our wand'ring feet to heav'n. Not for our duties or deserts, But of his own abounding grace, He works salvation in our hearts, And forms a people for his praise. 'Twas his own purpose that begun To rescue rebels doomed to die; He gave us grace in Christ his Son Before he spread the starry sky. Jesus the Lord appears at last, And makes his Father's counsels known; Declares the great transactions past, And brings immortal blessings down. He dies, and in that dreadful night Did all the powers of hell destroy; Rising, he brought our heav'n to light, And took possession of the joy. Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:9-10
