Lord, My Weak Though in Vain Would Climb

Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: Trust and Assurance First Line: Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb Lyrics: 1 Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb to search the starry vault profound; in vain would wing her flight sublime to find creation's utmost bound. 2 But weaker yet that thought must prove to search thy great eternal plan, thy sov'reign counsels, born of love long ages ere the world began. 3 When my dim reason would demand why that, or this, thou dost ordain, by some vast deep I seem to stand, whose secrets I must ask in vain. 4 When doubts disturb my troubled breast, and all is dark as night to me, here, as on solid rock, I rest that so it seemeth good to thee. 5 Be this my joy, that evermore thou rulest all things at thy will; thy sov'reign wisdom I adore, and calmly, sweetly, trust thee still. Scripture: Proverbs 3:19-20 Used With Tune: CANONBURY

God Moves in a Mysterious Way

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,148 hymnals Topics: Trust and Assurance 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 sov'reign will. 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; the clouds ye 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 ev'ry hour; the bud may have a bitter taste, but sweet will be the flow'r. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, and scan his work in vain; God is his own interpreter, and he will make it plain.

Your hand, in sight of all my foes, shall still my table spread; my cup with blessings overflows, your oil anoints my head. 3 The sure provisions of my God attend me all my days; O may your house be my abode, and all my work be praise. There would I find a settled rest, while others go and come; no more a stranger or a guest, but like a child at home. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: RESIGNATION
