The Voice of Praise ‎#64

64. Numbering All

1 Numbering all thy kingdom, op'nings to be and do,
Winning in life's great warfare, victories good and true;
Numbering all thy failures, vanities, doubts, and sin,
Needing the blood of Jesus, needing his grace within.

Chorus:
Numbering, numbering, numbering all,
Sunbeams and raindrops as softly they fall;
Numbering, numbering, numbering all,
God's hand is numbering, numbering all.

2 Numbering all thy treasures, numbering all thy cares,
All of thy low heart-breathings, all of thy spoken pray'rs;
Numbering joy's bright moments, numbering clouded days,
All of thy glad thanksgivings, all of thy songs of praise. [Chorus]

3 Numbering all thy footsteps, guiding them in his way,
Wonderful gifts of mercy, infinite love display;
Caring for all thy sorrows, numbering ev'ry tear,
Whispering in the darkness "soon will thy light appear." [Chorus]

4 Numbering all thine off'rings, services freely brought,
Gratitude's willing tributes, lovingly, humbly wrought;
Sowing the seeds of blessing, gleaning the Master's wheat,
Garnering sheaves so precious, laying them at his feet. [Chorus]
