Author: John Hayes Holmes Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #55 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal Lyrics: 1 O God, whose law from age to age,
No chance or change can know,
Whose love forever more abides,
While aeons come and go;
From all the strife of earthly life,
To Thine embrace we flee,
And ’mid our crowding doubts and fears
Would put our trust in Thee.
2 The winds, Thy faithful messengers,
Are guided by Thy hand,
Thy ministers, the flames of fire,
Obey Thy stern command;
The seas resound within the bound
Where Thy dominion reigns,
And wheeling planets seek the paths
Thy mighty will ordains.
3 Thy holy purpose moves before
The nations on their way,
And leads the stumbling hosts of men
From darkness into day.
No captain’s sword, no prophet’s word,
But Thy great mercy prove;
No clime or kindred but attest
Thy providence of love.
4 Dear Father, we would learn to trust
The doing of Thy will,
And in Thy perfect law of love
Our doubts and fears would still.
Help us to know, in joy or woe,
Thy ways are always best,
And we, Thy children evermore,
By Thy great goodness blest.
AMEN. Topics: Glorifying God Languages: English Tune Title: ST LEONARD
