To God, his Creator, HYMN 38. C. M. [#] Divine Guardianship. 1 GREAT GOD, to thee my grateful tongue 2 From thy almighty forming hand 3 Thy power, my ever-present guard, While numerous dangers hover round, My help from thee descends. 4 Beneath the shadow of thy wings, How sweet is my repose! e! Thy morning light renews the springs 5 In celebration of thy praise I will employ my breath, And, walking steadfast in thy ways, HYMN 39. L. M. [#] Source of Goodness. 1 WITH One consent, let all the earth To God their cheerful voices raise; -2 Rejoice, for he is God alone, From whom both we and all proceed- 3 O, enter, then, his temple gate, Thence to his courts devoutly press; His truth, which always firmly stood, HYMN 40. C. M. [#] God's manifold Goodness. 1 FATHER, how wide thy glory shines! Known through the earth by thousand signs, 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim thy power; 3 Part of thy name divinely stands 4 But when we view thy grand design Where wisdom, power and goodness shine 5 Our thoughts are lost in reverend awe; 6 O may I bear some humble part Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, HYMN 41. 6.4. M. [#] Power of Divine Light. 1 MAY all our powers of mind, Whose cloud of glory bright, 2 The God of truth and grace And breaks the power His grace shall ever reign, And righteousness maintain, 3 As morning's opening ray Our night of sin illumes, HYMN 42. S. M. [#] Shepherd and Guide. 1 WHILE God my Father's near, 2 To ever-fragrant meads, Where rich abundance grows, 3 Along the lovely scene, Cool waters gently roll, And kind refreshment smiles serene, 4 Here let my spirit rest; How sweet a lot is mine! With pleasure, food, and safety blest; 5 Great Shepherd, if I stray, To thy fair pastures guide my way, HYMN 43. C. M. [#] Manifold Blessings. 1 JEHOVAH lives; and be his name From age to age he is the same, 2 He is our Rock when troubles rise, 3 Salvation to the Lord belongs; 4 Great is the mercy we have found, round. HYMN 44. C. M. [#] 1 GOD reigns; events in order flow, But in a different channel go, 2 Weak mortals do themselves beguile, |
