Sovereign Ruler of the skies

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #429 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: or, my Times are in thy Hand Lyrics: 1 Sovereign Ruler of the skies, Ever gracious, ever wise! All my times are in thy hand, All events at thy command. 2 Thou didst form me in the womb, Thou wilt guide me to the tomb; All my times shall ever be Order'd by thy wise decree: 3 Times of sickness, times of health; Times of penury and wealth; Times of trial and of grief; Times of triumph and relief: 4 Times temptation's power to prove, Times to taste a Saviour's love; All is fix'd--the means and end, As shall please my heavenly Friend. 5 Plagues and deaths around me fly; Till he bids I cannot die; Not a single shaft can hit, Till the God of love sees fit.

Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, appear and save!

Or say, our lips are not our own? 5 The Lord, who sees the poor opprest, And hears th' oppressor's haughty strain, Will rise to give his children rest, Nor shall they trust his word in vain. 6 Thy word, O Lord, though often try'd, Void of deceit shall still appear; Not silver, seven times purify'd From dross and mixture, shines so clear. 7 Thy grace shall in the darkest hour Defend the from danger and surprise; Tho' when the vilest men have power, On every side oppressors rise.
