Come And See What God Is Doing

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come and see what God is doing: His are works of power and grace; Round the world His Word is going, Giving light to every place. ’Tis a day expected long, Theme of old prophetic song. 2 While the nations are contending, And the tumult louder grows; Through the earth our God is sending News of peace, to heal our woes. Sounds of mercy sweeter are, Heard amid the din of war. 3 Long the nations were benighted, And the darkness has been still; But the lamp that God has lighted, Now is set upon a hill. Many now enjoy the light, And with rapture hail the sight. 4 Higher still and higher place it: Show it to the world around; Never should we cease to raise it, While a nation still is found, One to whom it is not giv’n To enjoy the light of Heav’n.
