Great God! with wonder and with praise
Hymnal: Hymns of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States, as authorized by the General Convention #1 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Holy Scriptures Languages: English
Great God! with wonder and with praise
Eternal Spirit! 'twas thy breath
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #1 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Eternal Spirit! 'twas thy breath
The oracles of truth inspired;
And kings and holy seers of old
With strong prophetic impulse fir'd.
2 Fill'd with thy great almighty pow'r,
Their lips with heavenly science flow'd;
Their hands a thousand wonders wrought,
Which bore the signature of God.
3 With gladsome hearts they spread the news
Of pardon, through a Saviour's blood;
And to a num'rous seeking crowd
Mark'd out the path to his abode.
4 The pow'rs of earth and hell in vain
Against the sacred word combine;
Thy providence through ev'ry age
Securely guards the work divine.
5 Thee, its great author, source of light,
Thee, its preserver, we adore;
And humbly ask a ray from thee,
Its hidden wonders to explore.

Author: Bishop Christian Gregor, 1723-1801 Hymnal: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church #3 (1920) Topics: Scriptures The Holy Languages: English Tune Title: HOLY LORD
Holy Lord, Holy Lord, thanks and praise be ever thine
Let av'rice, borne from shore to shore
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #4 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Let av'rice, from shore to shore
Her fav'orite god pursue;
Thy word, O Lord, we value more
Than India or Peru.
2 Here mines of knowledge, love, and joy
Are open'd to our sight:
The purest gold without alloy,
And gems divinely bright.
3 The counsels of redeeming grace
The sacred leaves unfold:
And here the Saviour's lovely face
Our raptur'd eyes behold.
4 Here light, descending from above
Directs our doubtful feet;
Here promises of heav'nly love
Our ardent wishes meet.
5 Our num'rous griefs are here redrest,
And all our wants supplied:
Naught we can ask to make us blest
Is in this book denied.
6 For these inestimable gains,
That so enrich the mind,
O may we search with eager pains,
Assur'd that we shall find!
Let av'rice, borne from shore to shore
How precious is the book divine

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #5 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Let all the heathen writers join
To form one perfect book:
Great God! if once compar'd with thine,
How mean their writings look!
2 Not the most perfect rules they gave
Could show one sin forgiv'n,
Nor lead a step beyond the grave;
But thine conduct to heav'n.
3 Lord, I have made thy word my choice,
My lasting heritage;
There shall my noblest pow'rs rejoice,
My warmest thoughts engage.
4 I'll read the hist'ries of thy love,
And keep thy laws in sight,
While through thy promises I rove
With ever fresh delight.
5 'Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,
Where springs of life arise,
Seeds of immortal bliss are sown
And hidden glory lies.
