Hymn. Goodness of God. 1 THINE, LORD, is wisdom, thine alone! Justice and truth before Thee stand; Yet nearer to Thy sacred throne Mercy withholds Thy lifted hand. 2 Each ev'ning shows Thy tender love, 3 To Thy benign indulgent care, FATHER, this light, this breath we owe; And all we have, and all we are, From Thee, great Source of being, flow. 4 While those, at length, who scorn Thy might, Shall feel Thee a consuming fire; How sweet the joys, the crown how bright, Hymn. Wisdom of God. 1 WAIT, O my soul, thy Maker's will; 3 In heav'n, and earth, and air, and seas, 4 Wait then, my soul, submissive wait, Hymn. Power of God. 1 ENTHRON'D on high th' ALMIGHTY reigns With sov❜reign, universal sway; He executes what He ordains, And none His powerful hand can stay. 2 The thunder of His glorious power What mortal mind can understand? Archangels wonder and adore, Hell trembles at His dread command. 3 Armies are nothing with the LORD, Dispers'd like chaff before the wind; 4 Transporting thought! this GOD is mine; And will redeem me from the grave. 5 Come, sinner, bow before His throne; With contrite heart, draw nigh to GOD; "Be wise" in time, and "kiss the SON," Lest thou be crush'd beneath His rod. Hymn. Faithfulness of God. 1 BEGIN, my tongue, some heav'nly theme, 2 Tell of His wondrous faithfulness, 3 Proclaim salvation from the LORD 4 Engrav'd as in eternal brass Nor can the pow'rs of darkness rase 5 His very Word of grace is strong 6 O might I hear Thy heav'nly tongue Those gentle words should raise my song Hymn. Faithfulness of God. 1 How oft have sin and Satan strove And JESUS seals it with His blood. And fills all Heav'n with endless praise. 1 2 Hymn. Divine Attributes in general. THE LORD JEHOVAH reigns, His throne is built on high; Are light and majesty: His glory shines with beams so bright, The thunders of His hand Keep the wide world in awe ; To guard His holy law: And where His love resolves to bless, 3 4. Through all His ancient works And breaks their dark designs: And can this mighty King Of glory condescend? And will He write His Name, My Father and my Friend? I love His Name, I love His Word; Hymn.
