Thou art, O God! a spirit pure

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #14 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Being and Perfections of God Lyrics: 1 Thou art, O God! a spirit pure, Invisible to mortal eyes; Th'immortal, and the eternal King, The great, the good, the only wise. 2 Whilst nature changes, and her works Corrupt, decay, dissolve, and die, Thy essence pure no change shall see, Secure of immortality. 3 Thou great Invisible! what hand Can draw thy image spotless fair! To what in heaven, to what on earth, Can men th'immortal King compare! 4 Let stupid heathens frame their gods Of gold, and silver, wood and stone; Ours is the God that made the heavens; Jehovah he, and God alone. 5 My soul, thy purest homage pay, In truth and spirit him adore: More shall this please than sacrifice, Than outward forms delight him more. Scripture: John 4:24

God Almighty

The mountains tremble at the noise, The valleys roar, the deserts quake. 5 The Lord sits sov'reign o'er the flood; The Thund'rer reigns forever King; But makes his church his blest abode, Where we his awful glories sing. 6 We see no terrors in his name, But in our God a Father find. The voice, that shakes all nature's frame, Speaks comfort to the pious mind. Languages: English

Thy hand can seize thy foes as soon Through midnight shades, as blazing noon. 6 O may these thoughts possess my breast, Where'er I rove, where'er I rest! Nor let my weaker passions dare Consent to sin, for God is there. Languages: English

If one sharp blast sweep o’er the field, It withers in an hour. 7 But Thy compassions, Lord, To endless years endure; And children’s children ever find Thy words of promise sure. Languages: English
