Hymnal: A New Selection of Hymns; designed for the use of conference meetings, private circles, and congregations, as a supplement to Dr. Watts' Psalms and Hymns #46 (1812) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Ye humble souls approach your God
With songs of sacred praise,
For he is good, immensely good,
And kind are all his ways.
2 All nature owns his guardian care,
In him we live and move;
But nobler benefits declare
The wonders of his love.
3 He gave his Son, his only Son,
To ransom rebel worms;
'Tis here he makes his goodness known
In it diviner forms.
4 To this dear refuge, LORD, we come,
'Tis here our hope relies;
A save defence, a peaceful home,
When storms of trouble rise.
5 Thine eye beholds, with kind regard,
The souls who trust in thee;
Their humble hope thou wilt regard,
With bliss divinely free.
6 Great GOD,to thy Almighty love,
What honors shall we raise?
Not all the raptur'd songs above,
Can render equal praise. Scripture: Nahum 1:7 Languages: English
Ye humble souls approach your God
