Lord, My Weak Though in Vain Would Climb
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #225 (2018) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Mystery of God's Ways First Line: Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb Lyrics: 1 Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
to search the starry vault profound;
in vain would wing her flight sublime
to find creation's utmost bound.
2 But weaker yet that thought must prove
to search thy great eternal plan,
thy sov'reign counsels, born of love
long ages ere the world began.
3 When my dim reason would demand
why that, or this, thou dost ordain,
by some vast deep I seem to stand,
whose secrets I must ask in vain.
4 When doubts disturb my troubled breast,
and all is dark as night to me,
here, as on solid rock, I rest
that so it seemeth good to thee.
5 Be this my joy, that evermore
thou rulest all things at thy will;
thy sov'reign wisdom I adore,
and calmly, sweetly, trust thee still. Scripture: Proverbs 3:19-20 Languages: English Tune Title: CANONBURY

How sure the Scriptures are!
Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #249 (1987) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Pentecost 22 The Two Ways Lyrics: 1 How sure the Scriptures are!
God's vital, urgent word,
as true as steel, and far
more sharp than any sword:
So deep and fine,
at his control
they pierce where soul
and spirit join.
2 They test each human thought,
refining like a fire;
they measure what we ought
to do and to desire:
For God know all —
exposed it lies
before his eyes
to whom we call.
3 Let those who hear his voice
confronting them today,
reject the tempting choice
of doubting or delay:
For God speaks still —
his word is clear,
so let us hear
and do his will! Scripture: Hebrews 4:12-13 Languages: English Tune Title: CROFT'S 136th
How sure the Scriptures are!

Author: H. W. Baker (1821-1877) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #251b (1987) Meter: 6.6.6.6 Topics: Pentecost 22 The Two Ways Lyrics: 1 Lord your word shall guide us
and with truth provide us:
teach us to receive it
and with joy believer it.
2 When our foes are near us,
Then your word shall cheer us —
word of consolation,
message of salvation.
3 When the storms distress us
and dark clouds oppress us,
then your word protects us
and its light directs us.
4 Who can tell the pleasure,
who recount the treasure
by your word imparted
to the simple-hearted?
5 Word of mercy, giving
courage to the living;
word of life, supplying
comfort to the dying.
6 O that we discerning
its most holy learning,
Lord, may love and fear you —
evermore be near you! Languages: English Tune Title: CHESTERTON
Lord your word shall guide us
