The Mysteries of God’s Providence

Author: Cowper Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #259 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: God moves in a mysterious way Lyrics: God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill, He treasures up His vast designs, And works His sovereign will. Ye fearful saints! fresh courage take; The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and will break In blessings on your head. Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan his work in vain; God is His own interpreter, And He will make it plain. Languages: English
