God of light and matchless splendor

Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: SDAH1886 #41 (1886) Lyrics: 1 God of light and matchless splendor, Feeble though the praise we bring, Let thy Spirit touch and tender Every heart as now we sing. 2 Heaven above cannot contain thee; At thy presence earth would flee; And though every sin doth pain thee, Still thy mercy spareth me! 3 Grateful praise my tongue shall offer, 'Neath thy smile or 'neath thy rod; Take the humble gift I proffer, Heart and mind, and strength, O God! 4 Living only to thy glory, From all selfish motives free, So shall I proclaim the story Of the One who died for me.

Praise the Lord! ye heavens, adore him

O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #45 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, Bow down before him, his glory proclaim; With gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness, Kneel and adore him, the Lord is his name. 2 Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness, High on his heart he will bear it for thee, Comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness, Guiding thy steps as may best for thee be. 3 Fear not to enter his courts in the slenderness Of the poor wealth thou wouldst reckon as thine: Truth in its beauty, and love in its tenderness, These are the offerings to lay on his shrine. 4 These, though, we bring them in trembling and fearfulness, He will accept for the Name that is dear; Mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness, Trust for our trembling, and hope for our fear.

High in the heavens, eternal God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #47 (1886) Lyrics: 1 High in the heavens, eternal God, Thy goodness in full glory shines; Thy truth shall break through every cloud That vails thy just and wise designs. 2 Forever firm thy justice stands, As mountains their foundations keep; Wise as the wonders of thy hands, Thy judgments are a mighty deep. 3 O God, how excellent thy grace, Whence all our hope and comfort spring! The sons of Adam, in distress, Fly to the shadow of thy wing. 4 In the provisions of thy house We still shall find a sweet repast; There mercy like a river flows, And brings salvation to our taste.

Wait, O my soul, thy Maker's will

Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: SDAH1886 #48 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Wait, O my soul, thy Maker's will, Tumultuous passions all be still, Nor let a murmuring thought arise; His ways are just, his counsels wise. 2 In realms of cloudless light he dwells, Performs his work, the cause conceals; And though his footsteps are unknown, Judgment and truth support his throne. 3 In heaven and earth and air and seas He executes his firm decrees; And by his saints it stands confessed That what he does is ever best. 4 Wait, then, my soul, submissive wait, With reverence bow before his seat, And 'mid the terrors of his rod Trust in a wise and gracious God.

Thine, Lord, is wisdom, thine alone

Author: Ernest Lange Hymnal: SDAH1886 #49 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thine, Lord, is wisdom, thine alone; Justice and truth before thee stand: Yet, nearer to thy sacred throne Mercy withholds thy lifted hand. 2 Each evening shows thy tender love, Each rising morn thy plenteous grace; Thy wakened wrath doth slowly move, Thy willing mercy flies apace. 3 To thy benign, indulgent care, Father, this light, this breath, we owe; And all we have, and all we are, From thee, great Source of being, flow. 4 Thrice Holy! thine the kingdom is, The power omnipotent is thine; And when created nature dies, Thy never-ceasing glories shine.

Eternal Power, whose high abode

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #50 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Eternal Power, whose high abode Becomes the grandeur of a God, Infinite lengths beyond the bounds Where stars revolve their little rounds! 2 Earth, from afar, hath heard thy fame, And worms have learned to lisp thy name; But O! the glories of thy mind Leave all our soaring thoughts behind. 3 God is in heaven, and men below; Be short our tunes, our words be few; A solemn reverence checks our songs, And praise sits silent on our tongues.
