Lord, My Weak Thought in Vain Would Climb
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #109 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: God's Work His Decrees Lyrics: 1 Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
to search the starry vault profound;
in vain would wing her flight sublime
to find creation's utmost bound.
2 But weaker yet that thought must prove
to search thy great eternal plan,
thy sovereign counsels, born of love
long ages ere the world began.
3 When my dim reason would demand
why that, or this, thou dost ordain,
by some vast deep I seem to stand,
whose secrets I must ask in vain.
4 When doubts disturb my troubled breast,
and all is dark as night to me,
here, as on solid rock, I rest -
that so it seemeth good to thee.
5 Be this my joy, that evermore
thou rulest all things at thy will;
thy sovereign wisdom I adore,
and calmly, sweetly, trust thee still.

Sovereign Love
Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: Laudes Domini #149 (1888) Topics: Decrees Spiritual First Line: 'Tis not that I did choose thee Lyrics: 1 'Tis not that I did choose thee,
For, Lord! that could not be;
This heart would still refuse thee;
But thou hast chosen me;--
Hast, from the sin that stained me,
Washed me and set me free,
And to this end ordained me,
That I should live to thee.
2 'Twas sovereign mercy called me,
And taught my opening mind;
The world had else enthralled me,
To heavenly glories blind.
My heart owns none above thee;
For thy rich grace I thirst;
This knowing,--if I love thee,
Thou must have loved me first. Scripture: Isaiah 65:1 Languages: English Tune Title: MIRIAM

Unsearchableness
Author: Elizabeth Scott Hymnal: Laudes Domini #152 (1888) Topics: Decrees Spiritual First Line: What finite power, with ceaseless toil Lyrics: 1 What finite power, with ceaseless toil,
Can fathom the eternal Mind?
Or who th' almighty Three in One
By searching, to perfection find?

Harmonious their adoring songs;
The laboring thought sinks down, opprest,
And praises die upon their tongues.
3 Yet would I lift my trembling voice
A portion of his ways to sing;
And mingling with his meanest works,
My humble, grateful tribute bring. Scripture: Esther 6:1 Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST
