his wonders to perform;
he plants his footsteps in the sea
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
of never-failing skill
he treasures up his bright designs,
and works his sovereign will.
3 You fearful saints, fresh courage take:
the clouds you so much dread
are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
but trust him for his grace;
behind a frowning providence
he hides a smiling face.
5 His purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding every hour;
the bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flower.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
and scan his work in vain;
God is his own interpreter,
and he will make it plain.
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:1-10 Used With Tune: IRISH

speed forth your flight!

bearing the lamp of grace
and, in earth's darkest place
let there be light!

a lantern to our footsteps,
shines on from age to age.
2 The church from you, dear Master,
received this gift divine;
and still that light is lifted
o'er all the earth to shine.
It is the chart and compass
that all life's voyage through,
mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
still guides, O Christ, to you.

a lamp of burnished gold
to bear before the nations
your true light as of old.
O teach your traveling pilgrims
by this their path to trace
till, clouds and darkness ended,
we see you face to face.
