God Moves in a Mysterious Way
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,127 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:16 Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform;
he plants his footsteps in the sea,
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
of never-failing skill
he treasures up his bright designs,
and works his sovereign will.
3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take;
the clouds ye so much dread
are big with mercy, and shall break
in blessings on your head.
4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
but trust him for his grace;
behind a frowning providence
he hides a smiling face.
5 His purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding ev'ry hour;
the bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flow'r.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
and scan his work in vain;
God is his own interpreter,
and he will make it plain.

With Joy We Contemplate the Grace
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 419 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:3 Lyrics: 1 With joy we contemplate the grace
of our High Priest above;
his heart is made of tenderness;
it overflows with love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
he knows our feeble frame;
he knows what sore temptations mean,
for he has felt the same.
3 But spotless, innocent, and pure
the great Redeemer stood
while Satan's fiery darts he bore,
and did resist to blood.
4 He'll never quench the smoking flax,
but raise it to a flame;
the bruised reed he never breaks,
nor scorns the meanest name.
5 Then let our humble faith address
his mercy and his pow'r;
we shall obtain deliv'ring grace
in ev'ry needful hour.

The mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
The humble poor believe.

"A way they knew not"
Author: Charles S. Robinson Appears in 126 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 42:16 First Line: Saviour! I follow on Lyrics: 1 Saviour! I follow on,
Guided by thee,
Seeing not yet the hand
That leadeth me;
Hushed be my heart and still,
Fear I no further ill;
Only to meet thy will
My will shall be.
2 Riven the rock for me
Thirst to relieve,
Manna from heaven falls
Fresh every eve;
Never a want severe
Causeth my eye a tear,
But thou dost whisper near,
"Only believe!"
3 Often to Marah's brink
Have I been brought;
Shrinking the cup to drink,
Help I have sought;
And with the prayer's ascent,
Jesus the branch hath rent--
Quickly relief hath sent,
Sweetening the draught.
4 Saviour! I long to walk
Closer with thee;
Led by thy guiding hand,
Ever to be;
Constantly near thy side,
Quickened and purified,
Living for him who died
Freely for me! Topics: Afflictions; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Declenson spiritual Used With Tune: EDEN

and earth repeat the loud Amen. Topics: Gathering of the Community; Kingdom; Mission; Offertory; Praise of God; Reign of Christ Used With Tune: DUKE STREET
