We come unto our fathers' God
Sing praise to God who reigns above
Author: Johann J Schütz 1650-90; Frances E Cox 1812-97 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 199 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God Who reigns above,
the God of all creation,
the God of power, the God of love,
the God of our salvation;
with healing balm my soul he fills
and every faithless murmur stills:
to God all praise and glory!
2 What God's almighty power has made
is ever in his keeping,
by early dawn or evening shade
his watchful eye unsleeping;
within the kingdom of his might,
his wisdom governs all aright—
to God all praise and glory!
3 I cried to him in time of need:
the Lord God heard my calling!
For death he gave me life indeed
and kept my feet from falling.
For this my thanks shall endless be;
O thank him, thank our God, with me—
to God all praise and glory!
4 The Lord will not forsake his flock,
his chosen generation;
he is their refuge and their rock,
their peace and their salvation.
As with a mother's tender hand
he leads his own, his chosen band:
to God all praise and glory!
5 Then come before his presence now
and banish fear and sadness;
to your redeemer pay your vow
and sing with joy and gladness:
though great distress my soul befell,
the Lord, my God, did all things well—
to God all praise and glory! Topics: The Father His Providence Scripture: John 10:11-15 Used With Tune: LAUS SEMPITERNA
