My God, How Wonderful Thou Art
Author: Rev. Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 343 hymnals Matching Instances: 11 Lyrics: 1. My God, how wonderful Thou art,
Thy majesty how bright!
How beautiful Thy mercy-seat
In depths of burning light!
2. O how I fear Thee, living God,
With deepest, tend'rest fears;
And worship Thee with trembling hope
And penitential tears.
3. Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord,
Almighty as Thou art;
For Thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart.
4. No earthly father loves like Thee,
No mother half so mild
Bears and forbears, as Thou hast done
With me, Thy sinful child.
5. Father of Jesus, love's Reward!
What rapture will it be,
Prostrate before Thy throne to lie,
And gaze and gaze on Thee.

My God, How Wonderful Thou Art
Shepherd divine, our wants relieve
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 159 hymnals Matching Instances: 8 Lyrics: 1 Shepherd divine, our wants relieve
in this our evil day;
to all thy tempted followers give
the power to watch and pray.
2 Long as our fiery trials last,
long as the cross we bear,
O let our souls on thee be cast
in never-ceasing prayer.
3 The Spirit's interceding grace
give us in faith to claim;
to wrestle till we see thy face,
and know thy hidden name.
4 Till thou thy perfect love impart,
till thou thyself bestow,
be this the cry of every heart,
'I will not let thee go.'
5 I will not let thee go, unless
thou tell thy name to me;
with all thy great salvation bless,
and make me all like thee.
6 Then let me on the mountain-top
behold thine open face;
where faith in sight is swallowed up,
and prayer in endless praise. Topics: Transfiguration Scripture: 1 Peter 4:12 Used With Tune: ST ETHELDREDA

Behold the sure Foundation Stone
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 195 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Behold the sure Foundation Stone
Which God in Zion lays,
To build our heavenly hopes upon,
And His eternal praise.
2 Chosen of God, to sinners dear,
And saints adore the Name;
They trust their whole salvation here,
Nor shall they suffer shame.
3 The foolish builders, scribe and priest,
Reject it with disdain;
Yet on this Rock the church shall rest,
And envy rage in vain.
4 What though the gates of hell withstood,
Yet must this Building rise:
'Tis Thine own work, almighty God,
And wondrous in our eyes. Topics: The Church; The Church Her Foundation and Nature Scripture: Psalm 118 Used With Tune: ST. ETHELDREDA
