Thou art, O God! a spirit pure
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #14 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Being and Perfections of God Lyrics: 1 Thou art, O God! a spirit pure,
Invisible to mortal eyes;
Th'immortal, and the eternal King,
The great, the good, the only wise.
2 Whilst nature changes, and her works
Corrupt, decay, dissolve, and die,
Thy essence pure no change shall see,
Secure of immortality.
3 Thou great Invisible! what hand
Can draw thy image spotless fair!
To what in heaven, to what on earth,
Can men th'immortal King compare!
4 Let stupid heathens frame their gods
Of gold, and silver, wood and stone;
Ours is the God that made the heavens;
Jehovah he, and God alone.

In truth and spirit him adore:

Than outward forms delight him more. Scripture: John 4:24

The God of Abraham praise
Author: Thomas Olivers Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #32 (1961) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: God Being of Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
Who reigns enthroned above;
Ancient of everlasting days,
And God of love:
Jehovah! great I AM!
By earth and heav'n confessed;
I bow and bless the sacred Name,
For ever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
At whose supreme command
From earth I rise, and seek the joys
At his right hand:
I all on earth forsake,
Its wisdom, fame, and pow'r;
And him my only portion make,
My Shield and Tower.
3 He by himself hath sworn,
I on his oath depend;
I shall, on eagle's wings upborne,
To heav'n ascend:
I shall behold his face,
I shall his pow'r adore,
And sing the wonders of his grace
For evermore.
4 The goodly land I see,
With peace and plenty blest,
A land of sacred liberty
And endless rest;
There milk and honey flow,
And oil and wine abound,
And trees of life for ever grow,
With mercy crowned.
5 There dwells the Lord our King,
The Lord our Righteousness;
Triumphant over the world and sin,
The Prince of Peace
On Zion's sacred height
His kingdom still maintains,
And glorious with his saints in light
For ever reigns.
6 The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high;
"Hail Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!"
They ever cry:
Hail, Abraham's God and mine!
I join the heavenly lays;
All might and majesty are thine,
And endless praise.
Amen. Scripture: Jeremiah 33:16 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI

My God, how wonderful thou art
The Spirit moved upon the waves
Author: Ferguson Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #28 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Being of God Existence Lyrics: 1 The Spirit moved upon the waves
That darkly rolled, a shoreless sea;
He spake the word, and light burst forth
A glorious, bright immensity.
2 At his command, the mountains heaved
Their rocky pinnacles on high,
Island and continent displayed
Their desert grandeur to the sky.
3 The voice of God was heard again,
And lovely flowers and graceful trees
Appeared on every vale and plain,
And perfumes floated on the breeze.
4 The word went forth, and vast and high
The heavenly orbs gave out their light,
O'er all the earth and sea and sky--
The rulers of the day and night.
Scripture: Genesis 1:1-2
The Spirit moved upon the waves
Great First of beings! mighty Lord
Author: Epis. Col. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #29 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Being of God Existence Lyrics: 1 Great First of beings! mighty Lord
Of all this wondrous frame!
Produced by thy creating word,
The world from nothing came.
2 Thy voice sent forth the high command,
'Twas instantly obeyed;
And through thy goodness all things stand,
Which by thy power were made.
3 Lord! for thy glory shine the whole;
They all reflect thy light:
For this in course the planets roll,
And day succeeds the night.
4 For this the sun disperses heat,
And beams of cheering day;
And distant stars, in order set,
By night thy power display.
5 For this the earth its produce yields,
For this the waters flow;
And blooming plants adorn the fields,
And trees aspiring grow.
6 Inspired with praise, our minds pursue
This wise and noble end--
That all we think, and all we do,
Shall to thine honor tend.
Scripture: Psalm 65:9

Attempts to look thy nature through.

Such wondrous height or depth can find,
Or fully trace thy boundless mind.

Enough for mortal men to know;
While wisdom, goodness, pow'r divine,
Thro' all thy works and conduct shine.

Thy works of nature and of grace,
Explore thy sacred truth, and still
Press on to know and do thy will! Languages: English

Ere seas or heav'n was made;

Were all the nations dead.

To thine immense survey,
From the formation of the sky
To the last awful day.
4 Eternity, with all its years,
Stands present to thy view.
To Thee there’s nothing old appears,
Great God! there’s nothing new.
5 Our lives thro' various scenes are drawn,
And vex'd with trifling cares;
While Thine eternal thought moves on
Thine undisturb'd affairs.
6 Great God, how infinite art thou!
How frail and weak are we!
Let the whole race of creatures bow,
And pay their praise to thee. Languages: English

He sees our inmost mind.
In vain to heav'n we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.

With honor can appear.
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.

Their bending knees the ground;
But God abhors the sacrifice,
Where not the heart is found.
4 Lord! search my thoughts, and try my ways,
And make my soul sincere;
Then shall I stand before thy face,
And find acceptance there. Languages: English
