The Wisdom of God

Author: Beddome Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #XI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Wisdom of God First Line: Wait, O my soul, thy maker's will Lyrics: 1 Wait, O my soul, thy maker's will, Tumultuous passions, all be still! Nor let a murmuring thought arise, His ways are just, his counsels wise, 2 He in the thickest darkness dwells, Performs his work, the cause conceals; But tho' his methods are unknown, Judgment and truth support his throne. 3 In heaven, and earth, and air, and seas, He executes his firm decrees; And by his saints it stands confest, That what he does is ever best. 4 Wait then, my soul, submissive wait, Prostrate before his awful seat; And 'midst the terrors of his rod, Trust in a wise and gracious God.

Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. 6 I bind unto myself the name, the strong name of the Trinity, by invocation of the same, the Three-in-One, and One-in-Three, of whom all nature hath creation, eternal Father, Spirit, Word.
