And that is just the reason I tell it now to thee. [Refrain] 3 I love to tell the story; 'Tis pleasant to repeat What seems, each time I tell it, More wonderfully sweet; I love to tell the story; For some have never heard The message of salvation From God's own holy word.

God moves in a mysterious way

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: Together in Song #126 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:1-10 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 You fearful saints, fresh courage take: the clouds you 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.
