Lord, we adore thy vast Designs

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CIX (1766) Topics: Darkness of Providence Lyrics: 1 Lord, we adore thy vast Designs, Th' obscure Abyss of Providence, Too deep to sound with mortal Lines, Too dark to view with feeble Sense. 2 Now thou array'st thine awful Face, In angry Frowns, without a Smile; We through the Cloud believe thy Grace, Secure of thy Compassions still. 3 Through Seas and Storms of deep Distress We sail by Faith, and not by Sight; Faith guides us in the Wilderness, Through all the Briars and the Night. 4 Dear Father, if thy lifted Rod Resolve to scourge us here below; Still we must lean upon our God, Thine Arm shall bear us safely through.

God's Glory Fills the Heavens

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #19B (2012) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Darkness First Line: God's glory fills the heavens with hymns Lyrics: 1 God’s glory fills the heavens with hymns; the domed sky bears the Maker’s mark. New praises sound from day to day and echo through the knowing dark. Without a word their songs roll on; into all lands their voices run. And with a champion’s strength and grace from farthest heaven comes forth the sun. 2 God’s perfect law revives the soul; its precepts make the simple wise. Its just commands rejoice the heart; its truth gives light unto the eyes. Forever shall this law endure: unblemished, righteous, true, complete. No gold we ever found so fine, no honey in the comb more sweet. 3 God’s servant may I ever be: this world my joy, that word my guide. O cleanse me, LORD, from secret sin; deliver me from selfish pride. Accept my thoughts and words and deeds; let them find favor in your sight. For you alone can make me whole, O LORD, my refuge and my might. Scripture: Psalm 19 Tune Title: CREATION

The King of Love My Shepherd Is

Author: Henry Williams Baker Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #23D (2012) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Darkness Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is, whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am his and he is mine forever. 2 Where streams of living water flow my ransomed soul he leadeth, and where the verdant pastures grow, with food celestial feedeth. 3 Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed, but yet in love he sought me, and on his shoulder gently laid, and home, rejoicing, brought me. 4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill with thee, dear Lord, beside me; thy rod and staff my comfort still, thy cross before to guide me. 5 Thou spreadst a table in my sight; thy unction grace bestoweth; and oh, what transport of delight from thy pure chalice floweth! 6 And so through all the length of days thy goodness faileth never; Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise within thy house forever.

I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say

Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #31 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Darkness Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Come unto me and rest; I bring good tidings of release to you who are oppressed.” I came to Jesus as I was, weary and worn and sad; I found in him a resting place, and he has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Behold, I freely give the living water! Thirsty one, stoop down and drink and live.” I came to Jesus and I drank of that life-giving stream; my thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, “I am this dark world’s light; look unto me; your morn shall rise, and all your day be bright.” I looked to Jesus, and I found in him my star, my sun; and in that light of life I’ll walk till trav'ling days are done.
