The Fatherly Goodness of God

Hymnal: The Psalter #168 (1912) Topics: Grace Justifying First Line: Before Thee, Lord, a people waits Lyrics: 1 Before Thee, Lord, a people waits To praise Thy Name in Zion's gates, To Thee shall vows be paid; Thou hearer of the suppliant's prayer, To Thee in need shall all repair To seek Thy gracious aid. 2 How great my trespasses appear, But Thou from guilt my soul wilt clear, And my transgressions hide. How blest Thy chosen, who by grace Are bro't within Thy dwelling-place That they may there abide. 3 The goodness of Thy house, O Lord, The joys Thy holy courts afford, Our souls shall satisfy; By deeds of might, in justice wrought, The Lord will grant us what we sought, Our Saviour, God Most High. 4 On Thy sustaining arm depend, To earth's and sea's remotest end, All men in ev'ry age; Thy strength establishes the hills, Thy word the roaring billows stills, And calms the people's rage. 5 The tribes of earth's remotest lands Behold the tokens of Thy hands And bow in godly fear; The east, where beams the morning light, The west, in evening glories bright, Rejoice, for Thou art near.
