God Is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur C. Ainger, 1841-1919 Meter: Irregular Appears in 93 hymnals Person Name: Arthur C. Ainger, 1841-1919 Lyrics: 1 God is working His purpose out
As year succeeds to year;
God is working his purpose out,
And the time is drawing near;
Nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled
With the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west,
Wherever foot has trod,
By the mouth of many messengers
Goes forth the voice of God:
Give ear to me, ye continents,
Ye isles, give ear to me,
That the earth may be filled
With the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
With the banner of Christ unfurled,
That the light of the glorious gospel of truth
May shine throughout the world:
Fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
To set their captives free,
That the earth may be filled
With the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is worthless toil
Unless God blesses the deed;
Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide
Till God gives life to the seed;
Yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled
With the glory of God
As the waters cover the sea. Topics: Discipleship; Going Forth; Harvest; Judgment; Majesty and Power; Mission; Mystery of God; New Year; Providence; Second Coming; Time; Trust; Word of God; World; Canons Scripture: Isaiah 11:9 Used With Tune: PURPOSE

God made their tiny wings. [Refrain]

The river running by,
The sunset, and the morning
That brightens up the sky. [Refrain]

The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
God made them ev'ry one. [Refrain]

And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well. [Refrain]

Once in Royal David's City
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895 Hymnal: WHSB1986 #402 (1986) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7 Person Name: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her baby
In a manger for his bed.
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.
2 He came down to earth from heaven
Who is God and Lord of all,
And his shelter was a stable,
And his cradle was a stall.
With the poor and mean and lowly
Lived on earth our Savior holy.
3 And through all his wondrous childhood
He would honor and obey,
Love and watch the lowly maiden
In whose gentle arms he lay.
Christian children all should be
Kind, obedient, good as he.
4 For he is our childhood's pattern,
Day by day like us he grew;
He was little, weak, and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us he knew:
And he feels for all our sadness,
And he shares in all our gladness.
5 And our eyes at last shall see him,
Thru his own redeeming love;
For that child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heav'n above:
And he leads his children on
To the place where he has gone. Topics: Holy Family; Christmas Season; Holy Family; Children's Hymns; Heaven; Second Coming Scripture: Luke 2:7 Languages: English Tune Title: IRBY
