and wise, and changes never;
thy hand almighty o'er us reigns,

the straying sheep dost gather;
thou Lamb of God, to thee on high
out of the depths we sinners cry:
have mercy on us, Jesus!

and speak some boundless thing,

of our eternal king.

sing the sweet promise of his grace
and our fulfilling God.
3 His very word of grace is strong
as that which built the skies;
the voice that rolls the stars along
speaks all the promises.
4 He said, "Let wide the heaven be spread,'
and heaven was stretched abroad;
'Abram, I'll be your God,' he said
and he was Abram's God.
5 O might I hear your heavenly tongue
but whisper, 'You are mine';
those gentle words should raise my song
to notes almost divine.
6 How would my leaping heart rejoice,
and think my heaven secure!
I trust the all-creating voice,
and faith desires no more. Scripture: Genesis 15:5 Used With Tune: ST MAGNUS

God of eternal Love
Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace unchangeable Lyrics: 1 God of eternal Love,
How fickle are our Ways!
And yet how oft did Isr'el prove
Thy constancy of Grace!
2 They saw thy Wonders wrought,
And then thy Praise they sung;
But soon thy Works of Pow'r forgot,
And murmur'd with their Tongue.
3 Now they believe his Word
While Rocks with Rivers flow;
Now with their Lusts provoke the Lord,
And he reduc'd them low.
4 Yet when they mourn'd their Faults,
He hearken'd to their Groans,
Brought his own Cov'nant to his Thoughts,
And call'd 'em still his Sons.
5 Their Names were in his Book,
He sav'd 'em from their Foes:
Oft he chastis'd, but ne'er forsook
The People that he chose.
6 Let Isr'el bless the Lord,
Who lov'd their ancient Race:
And Christians join the solemn Word,
Amen, to all the Praise. Scripture: Psalm 106:43-48
God of eternal Love

in mercy he is keeping;

his eye is never sleeping.

3 We sought the Lord in our distress;
O God, in mercy hear us.
Our Savior saw our helplessness
and came with peace to cheer us.

who is by one and all adored:
to God all praise and glory!
4 Let all who name Christ's holy name

Before Jehovah's Awesome Throne
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8 with refrain Appears in 975 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awesome throne,
all nations, bow with sacred joy;
know that the Lord is God alone,
he can create, and he destroy -
he can create, and he destroy.
2 His sovereign pow'r without our aid,
made us of dust and formed us men;
and when like wand'ring sheep we strayed,
he brought us to his fold again -
he brought us to his fold again.
3 We are his people, we his care,
our souls and all our mortal frame:
what lasting honors shall we rear,
almighty Maker, to your name? -
almighty Maker, to your name?
4 We'll crowd your gates with thankful songs,
high as the heav'ns our voices raise;
and earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
shall fill your courts with sounding praise -
shall fill your courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is your command,
vast as eternity your love;
firm as a rock your truth must stand,
when rolling years shall cease to move -
when rolling years shall cease to move.
Scripture: Psalm 100 Used With Tune: PARK STREET

Great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free;
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
Love, joy, and hope, like flowers,
Spring in his path to birth:
Before him, on the mountains
Shall peace, the herald, go,
And righteousness, in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 To him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end:
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove,
His name shall stand forever;
That name to us is Love.

But answered his request in grace,
But answered his request in grace.

Amid thy people songs of praise;
Before all them that fear thee, now
I worship thee and pay my vow,
I worship thee and pay my vow.

They shall be fed and satisfied;
All they that seek the Lord shall live
And never-ending praises give,
And never-ending praises give.

All generations shall confess,
From age to age shall men be taught
What wondrous works the Lord has wrought,
What wondrous works the Lord has wrought.
