M 1 Not men below, nor saints that dwell 3 Not angels, that stand round the Lord, 40 41 God Omniscient. 1 GOD is in heaven! Can He see When I am doing wrong? Yes, that He can; He looks at thee 2 God is in heaven! Would He know Yes, though thou saidst it very low, 3 God is in heaven! Does He spare, Yes; all thou hast to eat or wear, The Love of God. 1 THE God of glory dwells on high; He rules the armies of the sky; C.M. L. M. Ten thousand thousand round Him stand, Obedient to their King's command. 2 The God of glory, moved by love, Descends in mercy from above; And He before whom angels bow Is found a man of grief below. 3 This love is great, too great for thought; Its length and breadth in vain are sought; No tongue can tell its depth and height; The love of God is infinite. 4 But though His love no measure knows, The Saviour to His people shows Enough to give them joy when known, Enough to make their hearts His own. 5 Constrained by this, they walk with Him; His love their most delightful theme; To glorify Him here their aim; Their hope in heaven to praise His name. 42 God Unsearchable. 1 ALMIGHTY God, Thy wondrous works Of providence and grace An angel's perfect mind exceed, And all our pride abase. 2 Stupendous heights! amazing depths! Or if a transient glimpse we gain, 3 Though all these mysteries lie concealed Grant us the knowledge of ourselves, 43 God's Mercy Boundless. 1 ABOVE the heaven's created rounds Thy mercies, Lord, extend; C.

M. And all our thoughts to Him are known, 45 THE SCRIPTURES. The Best Volume. C. M. 1 GREAT God, with wonder and with praise, Upon Thy works we look; But still Thy wisdom, power, and grace 2 The stars that in their courses roll But fruits of life and glory grow 4 Here we are taught how Christ has died, Not all the books on earth beside 5 Then let us love our Bible more, By day to read these wonders o'er, 46 The Lamp of Life. 1 How precious is the Book divine, Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine, 2 Its light, descending from above, C. M. Displays a Saviour's boundless love, 3 It shows to man his wandering ways, And brings to view the matchless grace 4 When once it penetrates the mind, Th' enlightened soul begins to find 5 It sweetly cheers poor sinners' hearts Life, light, and joy it still imparts, 6 May this bright lamp through all the night Till we behold the clearer light 47 Buy the Truth. 10 may we love the Bible! God's holy Book of truth, The blessed staff of hoary age, The lamp that sheds a glorious light P.M. The word that speaks a Saviour's love, 2 O may we love the Bible! For it alone can tell C |
