God moves in a mysterious way

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #55 (1997) Topics: Mystery Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform; he plants his footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines of never failing skill he treasures up his bright designs, and works his sovereign will. 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; the clouds ye so much dread are big with mercy, and shall break in blessings on your head. 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, but trust him for his grace; behind a frowning providence he hides a smiling face. 5 His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour; the bud may have a bitter taste, but sweet will be the flower. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, and scan his work in vain; God is his own interpreter, and he will make it plain.

Mysterious Presence, Source of All

Author: Seth Curtis Beach, 1837-1932 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #92 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs Lyrics: 1 Mysterious Presence, source of all — the world without, the soul within — thou fount of life, O hear our call, and pour thy living waters in. 2 Thou breathest in the rushing wind, thy spirit stirs in leaf and flower; nor wilt thou from the willing mind withhold thy light and love and power. 3 Thy hand unseen to accents clear awoke the psalmist’s trembling lyre, and touched the lips of holy seer with flame from thine own altar fire. 4 That touch divine again impart, still give the prophet’s burning word; and vocal in each waiting heart let living psalms of praise be heard.
