Broad and deep and glorious as the heaven above, shines in might victorious His eternal love. 3 Lord, upon our blindness Your pure radiance pour; for Your loving-kindness make us love You more. And when clouds are drifting dark across the sky, then, the veil uplifting, Father, be close by. 4 We will never doubt You, though You veil Your light; life is dark without You, death with You is bright. Light of light, shine o'er us on our pilgrim way; still go on before us to the endless day. Languages: English Tune Title: RUTH

The Seasons of the Year

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #261a (1786) Topics: Seasons of the year; Seasons of the year First Line: With songs and honours sounding loud Lyrics: 1 With songs and honuors sounding loud, Address the Lord on high; Over the heavens he spreads his cloud, And waters veil the sky. 2 He sends his showers of blessing down To cheer the plains below; He makes the grass the mountains crown, And corn in valleys grow. 3 He gives the grazing ox his meat, He hears the ravens cry; But man who tastes his finest wheat, Should raise his honours high. 4 His steady counsels change the face Of the declining year; He bids the sun cut short his race, And wintry days appear. 5 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow Descend and clothe the ground; The liquid streams forbear to flow, In icy fetters bound. 6 When from the dreadful stores on high He pours the sounding hail, The wretch that dares his God defy Shall find his courage fail. 7 He sends his word and melts the snow, The fields no longer mourn; He calls the warmer gales to blow, And bids the spring return. 8 The changing wind, the flying cloud, Obey his mighty word: With songs and honours sounding loud Praise ye the sovereign Lord.
