He all decrees, who by his hand prepared the land and formed the seas. 3 In worship bow the knee, our glorious God confess; the great Creator, he, the Lord our Righteousness. He reigns unseen: his flock he feeds and gently leads in pastures green. 4 Come, hear his voice today, receive what love imparts; his holy will obey and harden not your hearts. His ways are best; and lead at last, all troubles past, to perfect rest.

In honor to His name Reflect that sacred light; And loud that grace proclaim, Which makes thy darkness bright; Pursue His praise till sovereign love In worlds above, the glory raise. 4. There on His holy hill A brighter sun shall rise, And with His radiance fill Those fairer, purer skies; While round His throne ten thousand stars, In nobler spheres, His influence own.

Upward I Lift Mine Eyes

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 242 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Upward I lift mine eyes, From God is all my aid; The God that built the skies, And earth and nature made; God is the tower to which I fly; His grace is nigh in every hour. 2 My feet shall never slide And fall in fatal snares, Since God, my guard and guide, Defends me from my fears. Those wakeful eyes that never sleep Shall Israel keep when dangers rise. 3 No burning heats by day, Nor blasts of evening air, Shall take my health away, If God be with me there. Thou art my sun, and Thou my shade, To guard my head by night or noon. 4 Hast Thou not giv’n Thy word To save my soul from death? And I can trust my Lord To keep my mortal breath. I’ll go and come, nor fear to die, Till from on high Thou call me home. Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
