Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Public and national Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 On Thee, great Ruler of the skies, On thee our steadfast hope relies; When hostile powers against us join, What aid so present, Lord, as thine! 2 By thee secur'd, no fears we own, Though earth, convuls'd, beneath us groan, Though tempest o'er her surface sweep, And whirl her hills into the deep;-- 3 Though, arm'd with rage, before our eyes That deep in all its horrors rise, While, as the tumult spreads around, The mountains tremble at the sound. 4 Behold fair Sion's blest retreat, Where God has fixt his awful seat; Whose walls to heaven's almighty Lord His chosen residence afford. 5 God, ever watchful, ever nigh Bids storms around her harmless fly; His early care each foe withstands, And backward turns the yielding bands.
