[Psa 103:8] Lord, How Wondrous Are His Ways, The
The Lord, how wondrous are His ways!
How firm His truth! how large His grace!
He takes His mercy for His throne,
And thence He makes His glories known.Not half so high His power hath spread
The starry heav’ns above our head,
As His rich love exceeds our praise,
Exceeds the highest hopes we raise.Not half so far hath nature placed
The rising morning from the west,
As His forgiving grace removes
The daily guilt of those He loves.How slowly doth His wrath arise!
On swifter wings salvation flies;
And if He lets His anger burn,
How soon His frowns to pity turn.Amidst His wrath compassion shines;
His strokes are lighter than our sins;
And while His rod corrects His saints,
His ear indulges their complaints.So fathers their young sons chastise
With gentle hand and melting eyes;
The children weep beneath the smart,
And move the pity of their heart.The mighty God, the wise and just,
Knows that our frame is feeble dust;
And will no heavy loads impose
Beyond the strength that He bestows.He knows how soon our nature dies,
Blasted by every wind that flies;
Like grass we spring, and die as soon,
Or morning flowers that fade at noon.But His eternal love is sure
To all the saints, and shall endure;
From age to age His truth shall reign,
Nor children’s children hope in vain.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

When silent falls the gushing tear,
O’er cheeks grown pale with care;
And on the heart a cross is laid
That seems too hard to bear,

And trust, in weal or woe,
His holy Word, that changeth not,
Though uttered years ago.Refrain
“Like as a father pitieth His children,
So the Lord pitieth them that fear Him,
So the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.”When one by one our treasured hopes
Like autumn leaves decay,
And they who made our life most dear
Are borne from us away,
O look beyond the veil of time,
Where springs of comfort flow,
And trust His Word, that changeth not,
Though uttered years ago.Refrain
The clouds that bode the darkest hour
The purest light may bring;
The heart that mourns its broken chords
The sweetest song may sing;
Though oft a rugged path we tread,
Yet this one thing we know,
God’s holy Word can never change,
Though uttered years ago.Refrain

And all our frailty knows;
Man’s days are like the tender grass,
And as the flower he grows.The flower is withered by the wind
That smites with blighting breath;
So man is quickly swept away
Before the blast of death.Unchanging is the love of God,
From age to age the same,
Displayed to all who do His will
And reverence His Name.Those who His gracious cov’nant keep

To eternity the same.All the faithful to His covenant
Shall behold His righteousness;

To smile, to sigh, to grieve;

Fling ease and self away;
This is no time for thee to sleep,
Up, watch, and work, and pray!The useful, not the great,
The thing that never dies,
The silent toil that is not lost—
Set these before thine eyes.The seed, whose leaf and flower,
Though poor in human sight,

Awake, and you shall hear,
The Lord our God died on the cross
For us He loved so dear.O fair, O fair Jerusalem,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end,
Thy joy that I may see?The fields were green as green could be,
When from His glorious seat,
Our blessèd Father watered us,
With His heavenly dew so sweet.And for the saving of our souls
Christ died upon the cross;
We ne’er shall do for Jesus Christ
As He hath done for us.The life of man is but a span,
And cut down in its flower,
We’re here today, tomorrow gone,
The creatures of an hour.Instruct and teach your children well,
The while that you are here;
It will be better for your soul,
When your corpse lies on the bier.Today you may be alive and well,
Worth many a thousand pound;
Tomorrow dead and cold as clay,
Your corpse laid underground.With one turf at thine head, O man,
And another at thy feet;
Thy good deeds and thy bad, O man,
Will altogether meet.My song is done, I must be gone,

[Isa 55:8] The Two Views
To man, it seemed that Evil had prevailed,
That His fair life had altogether failed,
And naught was left but what the Cross impaled—
But God saw otherwise!They would have hailed Him King, and with acclaim,
Upon the wings of His far reaching fame,
Have swept the land like a devouring flame;
But God saw otherwise!It seemed as though His life had gone for naught—
Nothing to show for that long battle fought,
But a pale prisoner to the gibbet brought—
But God saw otherwise!No lasting good seemed ever like to come
Of all His sowing—neither fruit nor bloom,
Instead—a felon’s cross, an alien tomb—
But God saw otherwise!We, too, at times, come nigh to lose our hope,
When with life’s evils we no more can cope,
And in the dark with heavy hearts we grope;
But God saw otherwise!Play source: Cyberhymnal

[Joe 2:13] Once More The Solemn Season Calls
Once more the solemn season calls
A holy fast to keep;
And now within the temple walls
Let priest and people weep.But vain all outward sign of grief,
And vain the form of prayer,
Unless the heart implore relief,
And penitence be there.We smite the breast, we weep in vain,
In vain in ashes mourn,
Unless with penitential pain
The smitten soul be torn.In sorrow true then let us pray
To our offended God,
From us to turn His wrath away
And stay the uplifted rod.O God, our Judge and Father, deign
To spare the bruisèd reed;
We pray for time to turn again,
For grace to turn indeed.Blest Three in One to Thee we bow;
Vouchsafe us, in Thy love,
To gather from these fasts below
Immortal fruit above.Play source: Cyberhymnal

And when His strokes are felt,
His strokes are fewer than our crimes,
And lighter than our guilt.High as the heav’ns are raised,
Above the ground we tread,
So far the riches of His grace
Our highest thoughts exceed.His power subdues our sins;
And His forgiving love
Far as the east is from the west,
Doth all our guilt remove.The pity of the Lord,
To those that fear His Name,
Is such as tender parents feel;
He knows our feeble frame.Our days as are the grass,
Or like the morning flower;
If one sharp blast sweep o’er the field
It withers in an hour.But Thy compassions, Lord,
To endless years endure;
And children’s children ever find
Thy words of promise sure.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Eph 1:7] How Happy Every Child Of Grace
How happy every child of grace,
Who knows his sins forgiven!
“This earth,” he cries, “is not my place,
I seek my place in Heaven—
A country far from mortal sight,
Which yet by faith I see,
The land of rest, the saints’ delight,
The heaven prepared for me.”O what a blessèd hope is ours!
While here on earth we stay,
We more than taste the heavenly powers,
And antedate that day.
We feel the resurrection near,
Our life in Christ concealed,
And with His glorious presence here
Our earthen vessels filled.O would He more of heaven bestow,
And let the vessels break,
And let our ransomed spirits go
To grasp the God we seek;
In rapturous awe on Him to gaze,
Who bought the sight for me;
And shout and wonder at His grace
Through all eternity!Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Eph 1:7] Redemption
Redemption! oh, wonderful story—
Glad message for you and for me;
That Jesus has purchased our pardon,
And paid all the debt on the tree.Refrain
Believe it, O sinner, believe it;
Receive the glad message—’tis true;
Trust now in the crucified Savior,
Salvation He offers to you.From death unto life He has brought us,
And made us by grace sons of God;
A fountain is opened for sinners;
Oh, wash and be cleansed in the blood!Refrain
No longer shall sin have dominion,
Though present to tempt and annoy;
For Christ, in His blessèd redemption,
The power of sin shall destroy.Refrain
Accept now God’s offer of mercy;
To Jesus, oh hasten today;
For He will receive him that cometh,
And never will turn him away.Refrain
