the power of God to hold and lead,
his eye to watch, his might to stay,
his ear to hearken to my need,
the wisdom of my God to teach,
his hand to guide, his shield to ward,
the word of God to give me speech,
his heavenly host to be my guard.

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

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.

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.

God Incomprehensible
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #4 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Of God The Being and Perfections of God First Line: Great God, in vain man's narrow view Lyrics: 1 Great God, in vain man's narrow view,
Attempts to look thy nature through.
Our lab'ring pow'rs with rev'rence own,
Thy glories never can be known.
2 Not the high seraph's mighty thought,
Who countless years his God has sought,
Such wondrous height or depth can find,
Or fully trace thy boundless mind.
3 Yet, Lord, thy kindness deigns to show
Enough for mortal men to know;
While wisdom, goodness, pow'r divine,
Thro' all thy works and conduct shine.
4 O! may our souls with rapture trace
Thy works of nature and of grace,
Explore thy sacred truth, and still
Press on to know and do thy will! Languages: English
God Incomprehensible
God eternal and unchangeable
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #5 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Of God The Being and Perfections of God First Line: Great God, how infinite art thou! Lyrics: 1 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.
2 Thy throne eternal ages stood,
Ere seas or heav'n was made;
Thou art the ever-living God,
Were all the nations dead.
3 Nature and time all open lie
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
God eternal and unchangeable
God is a Spirit, just and wise
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #12 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Of God The Being and Perfections of God Lyrics: 1 God is a Spirit, just and wise;
He sees our inmost mind.
In vain to heav'n we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.
2 Nothing but truth before his throne
With honor can appear.
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.
3 Their lifted eyes salute the skies,
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
