Great Lord of earth, and seas and skies!

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #XCIV (1789) Topics: Confidence and Resignation Dependence and Resignation Lyrics: 1 Great Lord of earth, and seas and skies! Thy wealth the needy world supplies; On thee alone the whole depends, Thy care to ev'ry part extends. 2 To thee perpetual thanks we owe, For all our comforts here below; Our daily bread thy bounty gives, And ev'ry rising want relieves. 3 The wastes of life thy pow'r repairs, Thy mercy stills tempestuous cares, And safe beneath thy guardian arm We live secur'd from ev'ry harm. 4 To thee we cheerful homage bring, In grateful hymns thy praises sing, Direct to thee our waiting eyes, And humbly look for fresh supplies. 5 We still our indigent and poor, Indebted much, yet lacking more; On thee we ever will depend, The rich, the sure, the faithful friend. 6 And, should thy measures seem severe, Calmly may we thy chast'ning bear, Without complaint to thee submit, Th' unerring Judge of what is fit.

O God! on thee we all depend

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #LXXXVI (1789) Topics: Confidence and Resignation Confidence in God our Father Lyrics: 1 O God! on thee we all depend, On thy paternal care; Thou wilt the father and the friend In every act appear. 2 With open hand and liberal hart Thou wilt our wants supply; Thy heav'nly blessings still impart, And no good thing deny. 3 Our father knows what's good and fit, And wisdom guides his love; To thine appointments we submit, and ev'ry choice approve. 4 In thy paternal love and care With cheerful hearts we trust; Thy tender mercies boundless are, And all thy ways are just. 5 We cannot want, while God provides; What he ordains is best; And Heav'n, whate'er we want besides, Will give eternal rest.
