The groans of Sion mix'd with tears;
Yet when he comes with kind designs,
Through all the way his terror shines.
2 On him the race of man depends,
Far as the earth's remotest ends,
Where the Creator's name is known
By nature's feeble light alone.
3 Sailors that travel o'er the flood,
Address their frighted souls to God,
When tempests rage and Billows roar
At dreadful distance from the shore.
4 He bids the noisy tempest cease;
He calms the raging crowd to peace,
When a tumultuous nation raves,
Wild as the winds, and loud as waves.
5 Whole kingdoms shaken by the storm,
He settles in a peaceful form;
Mountains establish'd by his hand
Firm on their old foundation stand.
6 Behold his ensigns sweep the sky,
New comets blaze, and lightnings fly;
The Heathen lands with swift surprise,
From the bright horrors turn their eyes.
7 At his command the morning ray
Smiles in the East, and leads the day,
He guides the sun's declining wheels
Over the tops of western hills.
8 Seasons and times obey his voice;
The evening and the morn rejoice
To see the earth made soft with showers,
Laden with fruit, and drest in flowers.
9 'Tis from his watery stores on high,
He gives the thirsty ground supply;
He walks upon the clouds, and thence
Doth his enriching drops dispense.
10 The desert grows a fruitful field,
Abundant food the vallies yield;
The vallies shout with cheerful voice,
And neighboring hills repeat their joys.
11 The pastures smile in green array,
There lambs and larger cattle play;
The larger cattle and the lamb,
Each in his language speaks thy name.
12 Thy works pronounce thy power divine;
O'er every field thy glories shine;
Through every month thy gifts appear;
Great God, thy goodness crowns the year. Scripture: Psalm 65:5-13 Languages: English
Divine Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; or, The God of Nature and Grace
God is a Spirit just and wise
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #333 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Prayer heard; Providence in air, earth, and sea; God his being, attributes, and providence; Gentiles church; Blessings of the country; God of nature and grace; Praise and prayer public; Praise for rain; Prayer and praise, public; Psalm for husbandmen; Public prayer and praise; Rain from heaven; Seasons of the year; Spring and summer; Spring of the year; Summer; Weather Lyrics:
God is a Spirit, just and wise,
He sees our inmost mind;
In vain to beav'n we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.
Nothing but truth before his throne
With honor can appear;
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.
Their lifted eyes salute the skies,
Their bending knees the ground;
But God abhors the sacrifice,
Where not the heart is found.
Lord, search my thoughts, and try my ways,
And make my soul sincere
Then shall I stand before thy face,
And find acceptance there.

The praise of Zion waits for thee,
My God, and praise becomes thy house;
There shall thy saints thy glory see,
And there perform their public vows.
O thou whose mercy bends the skies
To save when humble sinners pray,
All lands to thee shall lift their eyes,
And islands of the northern sea.
Against my will my sins prevail,
But grace shall purge away their stain;
The blood of Christ will never fail
To wash my garments white again.
Blest is the man whom thou shalt choose,
And give him kind access to thee;
Give him a place within thy house,
To taste thy love divinely free.
Let Babel fear when Zion prays;
Babel, prepare for long distress,
When Zion's God himself arrays
In terror and in righteousness.
With dreadful glory God fulfils
What his afflicted saints request;
And with almighty wrath reveals
His love, to give his churches rest.

Who makes the Earth his Care;
Visits the Pastures ev'ry Spring,
And bids the Grass appear.
2 The Clouds, like Rivers rais'd on high,
Pour out at thy Command
Their watry Blessings from the Sky,
To chear the thirsty Land.
3 The soften'd Ridges of the Field
Permit the Corn to spring;
The Vallies rich Provision yield,
And the poor Lab'rers sing.
4 The little Hills, on ev'ry Side,
Rejoice at falling Show'rs;
The Meadows, dresse'd in all their Pride,
Perfume the Air with Flow'rs.
5 The barren Clods, refresh'd with Rain,
Promise a joyful Crop;
The parching Grounds look green again,
And raise the Reaper's Hope.
6 The various Months thy Goodness crowns;
How bount'ous are thy Ways!
The bleating Flocks spread o'er the Downs,
And Shepherds shout thy Praise.

My God; and praise becomes thy house;
There shall thy saints thy glory see
And there perform their public vows.
2 O thou whose mercy bends the skies
To save when humble sinners pray;
All lands to thee shall lift their eyes,
And every yielding heart obey.
3 Against my will my sins prevail,
But grace shall purge away the stain:
The blood of Christ will never fail
To wash my garments white again.
4 Blest is the man whom thou shalt chuse,
And give him kind access to thee;
Give him a place within thy house,
To taste thy love divinely free.
Pause.
5 Let Babel fear when Sion prays,
Babel, prepare for long distress,
When Sion's God himself arrays
In terror and in righteousness.
6 With dreadful glory Gdf fulfils
What his afflicted saints request;
And with Almighty wrath reveals
His love to give his churches rest.
7 Then shall the flocking nations run
To Sion's hill and own their Lord;
The rising and the setting sun
Shall see the Saviour's name ador'd. Scripture: Psalm 65:1-5 Languages: English
