GOD's Dominion

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 202 hymnals First Line: Keep silence, all created things Lyrics: 1 Keep silence all created things, And wait your Maker's nod: My soul stands trembling, while she sings The honours of her God. 2 Life, death, and hell, and worlds unknown Hang on his firm decree: He sits on no precarious throne, Nor borrows leave to be. 3 Chain'd to his throne, a volume lies, With all the fates of men, With every Angel's form and size, Drawn by th' eternal pen. 4 His Providence unfolds the book, And makes his counsels shine; Each opening leaf, and every stroke Fulfils some deep design. 5 My God, I would not long to see My fate with curious eyes, What gloomy lines are writ for me, Or what bright scenes may rise, 6 In thy fair book of life and grace, O may I find my name, Recorded in some humble place, Beneath my Lord the Lamb/ Topics: God

GOD a Refuge in Time of Trouble

Author: Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 361 hymnals First Line: Dear refuge of my weary soul Lyrics: 1 Dear refuge of my weary soul, On thee, when sorrows rise, On thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting hope relies. 2 To thee I tell each rising grief, For thou alone canst heal; Thy word can bring a sweet relief For every pain I feel. 3 But O! when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail, And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; And still my soul would cleave to thee, Tho' prostrate in the dust. 5 Hast thou not bid me seek thy face? And shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sovereign grace Be deaf when I complain? 6 No, still the ear of sovereign grace Attends the mourner's prayer; O may I ever find access To breathe my sorrows there. 7 Thy mercy-seat is open still; Here let my soul retreat; With humble hope attend thy will, And wait beneath thy feet.

GOD exalted above all Praise

Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 226 hymnals First Line: Eternal Power,!whose high abode Lyrics: 1 Eternal Power whose high abode Becomes the grandeur of a God; Infinite length, beyond the bounds Where stars revolve their little rounds. 2 The lowest step above thy seat Rises too high for Gabriel's feet; In vain the tall Arch-angel tries To reach the height with wondering eyes. 3 Lord, what shall earth and ashes do? We would adore our Maker too; From sin and dust to thee we cry, The Great, the Holy, and the High! 4 Earth, from afar, has heard thy fame, And worms have learn'd to lisp thy name, But O, the glories of thy mind, Leave all our soaring thoughts behind. 5 God is in Heaven, but men below; Be short our tunes; our words be few. A sacred reverence checks our songs, And praise sits silent on our tongues. Topics: God

Gift of God

Author: Beddome Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 55 hymnals First Line: Jesus, my love, my chief delight Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my love, my chief delight, For thee I long, for thee I pray; Amid the shadows of the night, Amid the business of the day. 2 When shall I see thy smiling face, That face which often I have seen? Arise, thou Son of Righteousness, Scatter the clouds that intervene. 3 Thou art the glorious gift of God, To sinners weary, and distrest; The first of all his gifts bestow'd, And certain pledge of all the rest. 4 Could I but say, this gift is mine, I'd tread the world beneath my feet; No more at poverty repine, Nor envy the rich sinner's state. 5 The precious jewel I would keep, And lodge it deep within my heart; At home, abroad, awake asleep, It never should from thence depart!
