Doubts Overcome by Faith

Hymnal: The Psalter #209 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Sea First Line: To God for help will I repair Lyrics: 1 To God for help will I repair, To God will I direct my prayer, And surely He will answer me, His great salvation I shall see. 2 In long-continued grief I stand And seek the Lord with outstretched hand; I find no comfort for my soul the clouds of darkness o'er me roll. 3 I think of God and call to mind His goodness, yet no peace I find; I still pour out my sad complaints, My burdened spirit almost faints. 4 With sleepless eyes and speechless grief I search the past to find relief, The former years when days were bright And songs of gladness cheered my night. 5 My constant meditations bring My heart to anxious questioning: Has God cast off, and will He be No longer merciful to me? 6 Has God forgotten to be kind? Shall I His promise faithless find? For me shall wrath henceforth replace His tender mercies and His grace? 7 In weakness I was pressed with fear, But better hopes my spirit cheer; Past mercies lead me to rely Upon the help of God Most High. 8 Thy deeds, O Lord, will I relate And on thy wonders meditate; Thy way, O God, is just and right, And none is like to Thee in might. 9 Among the nations Thou hast shown Thy wondrous power and made it known; Thou art the God that mightily Redeemed and set Thy people free. 10 At sight of Thee the waters fled, The quaking clouds their torrents shed, The lightnings flashed, the thunder pealed, The trembling earth her fear revealed. 11 Thy way, O God, was in the sea, But, though Thy paths mysterious be, Thy people Thou didst safely keep As shepherds lead their helpless sheep.

Thou only doest wondrous things, The whole wide world Thy glory sings; Thy outstretched arm Thy people saved, Tho' sore distressed and long enslaved. 2 O God, from Thee the waters fled, The depths were moved with mighty dread, The swelling clouds their torrents poured, And o'er the earth the tempest roared; 'Mid lightning's flash and thunder's sound Great trembling shook the solid ground. 3 Thy way was in the sea, O God, Thro' mighty waters, deep and broad. None understood but God alone, To man Thy footsteps were unknown; But safe Thy people Thou didst keep, Almighty Shepherd of Thy sheep. Scripture: Psalm 77 Languages: English Tune Title: YOAKLEY

The Seasons Are Fixed by Wisdom Divine

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #219 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: The Sea Lyrics: 1 The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine, The slow changing moon show forth God’s design; The sun in his circuit his Maker obeys, And running his journey hastes not nor delays. 2 The Lord makes the night, when, leaving their lair, The lions creep forth, God’s bounty to share; The Lord makes the morning, when beasts steal away And men are beginning the work of the day. 3 How many and wise Thy works are, O Lord! The earth with the wealth of wisdom is stored; The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro, And creatures unnumbered it shelters below. 4 Thy creatures all look to Thee for their food; Thy hand opens wide, they gather the good; Thy face Thou concealest, in anguish they yearn; Their breath Thou withholdest, to dust they return. 5 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. 6 Before the Lord’s might earth trembles and quakes, The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks; The Lord I will worship through all of my days, Yea, while I have being my God I will praise. 7 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

In His hand are earth's deep places, His the strength of all the hills; His the sea whose bounds He traces, His the land His bounty fills. 3 To the Lord, such might revealing, Let us come with rev'rence meet, And, before our Maker kneeling, Let us worship at His feet. He is our own God who leads us, We the people of His care; With a shepherd's hand He feeds us As His flock in pastures fair. 4 While He proffers peace and pardon Let us hear His voice today, Lest, if we our hearts should harden, We should perish in the way; Lest to us, so unbelieving, He in judgment should declare: Ye, so long my Spirit grieving, Never in My rest can share.
