It is the Lord--enthron'd in light

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H49.II (1789) Topics: Heidelberg Catechism Lord's Day 49 Lyrics: 4 It is the Lord — enthron'd in light, Whose claims are all divine; who has an undisputed right To govern me and mine. 5 It is the Lord — should I distrust, Or contradict his will? Who cannot do but what is just, And must be righteous still. 6 It is the Lord — who gives me all My wealth, my friends, my ease; And of his bounties may recall Whatever part he please. 7 It is the Lord — who can sustain Beneath the heaviest load, From whom assistance I obtain To tread the thorny road. 8 It is the Lord — whose matchless skill Can from afflictions raise Matter, eternity to fill With ever-growing praise. 9 It is the Lord — my cov'nant God, Thrice blessed be his name! Whose gracious promise, seal'd with blood, Must ever be the same. 10 His cov'nant will my soul defend, Should nature's self expire: And the great Judge of all descend In awful flames of fire. 11 And can my soul with hopes like these, Be sullen, or repine? No, gracious God, take what thou please, I'll cheerfully resign. Languages: English

And men in every age have sought His wonders with delight. 3 How most exact is nature's frame! Th' eternal God, how wise! His counsels never change the scheme That His first thoughts devise. 4 When He through Christ redeemed our race He fixed His covenant sure; His precious promises of grace To endless years endure. 5 Nature, and time, and earth, and skies, His heavenly skill proclaim; But they alone are truly wise, Who know in Christ His name.
