Come, O my soul, in sacred lays

Author: Blacklock Hymnal: VoP1873 #53 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, O my soul, in sacred lays, Attempt thy great Creator's praise: But oh, what tongue can speak his fame? What mortal verse can reach his name? 2 Enthroned amid the radiant spheres, He glory like a garment wears; To form a robe of light divine, Ten thousand suns around him shine. 3 In all our Maker's grand designs, Omnipotence with wisdom shines; His works, through all this wondrous frame, Declare the glory of his name. 4 Raise on devotion's lofty wing, Do thou, my soul, his glories sing; And let his praise employ thy tongue, Till listening worlds shall join the song.

Author: Anon. Hymnal: VoP1873 #56 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There's not a place in earth's vast round, In ocean deep, or air, Where skill and wisdom are not found, For God is everywhere. 2 Around, within, below, above, Wherever space extends, There heaven displays its boundless love, And power with mercy blends. 3 Then rise, my soul, and sing his name, And all his praise rehearse, Who spread abroad earth's wondrous frame, And built the universe. 4 Where'er thine earthly lot is cast, His power and love declare; Nor think the mighty theme too vast, For God is everywhere.

In all my vast concerns with thee

Author: Watts Hymnal: VoP1873 #58 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 In all my vast concerns with thee, In vain my soul would try To shun thy presence, Lord, or flee The notice of thine eye. 2 Thine all-surrounding sight surveys My rising and my rest, My public walks, my private ways, And secrets of my breast. 3 My thoughts lie open to the Lord, Before they're formed within; And ere my lips pronounce the word, He knows the sense I mean. 4 Oh, wondrous knowledge, deep and high! Where can a creature hide? Within thy circling arms I lie, Enclosed on every side. 5 So let thy grace surround me still, And like a bulwark prove, To guard my soul from every ill, Secured by sovereign love.

Father of spirits, nature's God

Author: Anon. Hymnal: VoP1873 #59 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father of spirits, natures's God, Our inmost thoughts are known to thee; Thou, Lord, canst hear each idle word, And every private action see. 2 Could we, on morning's swiftest wings, Pursue our flight through trackless air, Or dive beneath deep ocean's springs, Thy presence still would meet us there. 3 In vain may guilt attempt to fly, Concealed beneath the pall of night; One glance from thy all-piercing eye Can kindle darkness into light. 4 Search thou our hearts, and there destroy Each evil thought, each secret sin, And fit us for those realms of joy, Where nought impure shall enter in.

Eternal Wisdom, thee we praise

Author: Watts Hymnal: VoP1873 #60 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Wisdom, thee we praise, Thee the creations sing: With thy loved name, rocks, hills, and seas, And heaven's high palace ring. 2 Thy hand, how wide it spreads the sky, How glorious to behold! Tinged with a blue of heavenly dye, And starred with sparkling gold. 3 There thou hast bid the globes of light Their endless circuits run; There the pale planet rules the night; The day obeys the sun. 4 If down I turn my wandering eyes On clouds and storms below, Those under-regions of the skies, Thy numerous glories show. 5 The noisy winds stand ready there Thy orders to obey; With sounding winds they sweep the air, To make thy chariot way. 6 But the mild glories of thy grace, Our softer passions move; Pity divine in Jesus' face We see, adore, and love.
