Great Lord of earth, and seas and skies!

Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Confidence and Resignation Dependence and Resignation Lyrics: 1 Great Lord of earth, and seas and skies! Thy wealth the needy world supplies; On thee alone the whole depends, Thy care to ev'ry part extends. 2 To thee perpetual thanks we owe, For all our comforts here below; Our daily bread thy bounty gives, And ev'ry rising want relieves. 3 The wastes of life thy pow'r repairs, Thy mercy stills tempestuous cares, And safe beneath thy guardian arm We live secur'd from ev'ry harm. 4 To thee we cheerful homage bring, In grateful hymns thy praises sing, Direct to thee our waiting eyes, And humbly look for fresh supplies. 5 We still our indigent and poor, Indebted much, yet lacking more; On thee we ever will depend, The rich, the sure, the faithful friend. 6 And, should thy measures seem severe, Calmly may we thy chast'ning bear, Without complaint to thee submit, Th' unerring Judge of what is fit.

Here I must toil and travail, Oft weary and opprest, But there my God shall lead me To everlasting rest. 2 There still my thoughts are dwelling, 'Tis there I long to be; Come, Lord, and call thy servant To blessedness with Thee! Come, bid my toils be ended, Let all my wanderings cease; Call from the wayside lodging To the sweet home of peace! 3 There I shall dwell forever, No more a stranger guest, With all thy blood-bought children, In everlasting rest: The pilgrim toils forgotten, The pilgrim conflicts o'er, All earthly griefs behind us, Eternal joys before!

My heart is lighten'd of its cares, My love for earthly things grows cold, And pleasure vainly spreads her snares. 3 I look to Jesus, and the sight Of all that He endured for me, Makes e'en my greatest sufferings light, Compared with His deep agony. 4 I look to Jesus when my zeal And faith and love grow dead and cold; Then doth He Calvary reveal, And makes me in His service bold. 5 Thus let me, Lord, while life doth last, In faith look ever up to Thee, And when life's sinful days are past I shall Thy face in glory see.
