From Age to Age exalt his Name

Appears in 41 hymnals Topics: Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 From Age to Age exalt his Name, GOD and his Grace are still the same; He fills the hungry Soul with Food, And feeds the Poor with ev'ry Good. 2 But if their Hearts rebel and rise Against the GOD that rules the Skies, If they reject his heav'nly Word, And slight the Counsels of the Lord; 3 He'll bring their Spirits to the Ground, And no Deliv'rer shall be found; Laden with Grief they waste their Breath In Darkness and the Shades of Death. 4 Then to the Lord they raise their Cries, He makes the dawning Light arise, And scatters all that dismal Shade That hung so heavy round their Head. 5 He cuts the Bars of Brass in two, And lets the smiling Pris'ners through, Takes off the Load of Guilt and Grief, And gives the lab'ring Soul Relief. 6 O may the Sons of Men record The wond'rous Goodness of the Lord; How great his Works! how kind his Ways! Let ev'ry Tongue pronounce his Praise. Scripture: Psalm 107
