O God, Whose Love Is Over All

Author: John H. Holmes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4936 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O God, whose love is over all The children of Thy grace, Whose rich and tender blessings fall On every age and place, Hear Thou the songs and prayers we raise In eager joy to Thee, And teach us, as we sound Thy praise, In all things Thee to see. 2. To see Thee in the sun by day And in the stars by night, In waving grass and ocean spray And leaves and flowers bright; To hear Thy voice, like spoken word, In every breeze that blows, In every song of every bird, And every brook that flows. 3. To see Thee in each quiet home Where faith and love abide, In school and church, where all may come To seek Thee side by side; To see Thee in each human life, Each struggling human heart, Each path by which, in eager strife, Men seek the better part.
