Fools in Their Heart Have Said

Author: Anonymous Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1. Fools in their heart have said, There is no God of might; Corrupt are they and base their deeds, In evil they delight. 2. God looked from Heav’n above On all the human race To see if any understood, If any sought His face. 3. They all are gone aside, Corruption doth abound; There is not one that doeth good, Not even one is found. 4. These men of evil deeds Will they no knowledge gain, Who feed upon my people’s woes And prayer to God disdain? 5. The day is drawing nigh When they shall fear and quail For God shall scatter and destroy Those who His saints assail. 6. Yea, God will put to shame And make them flee away, For He will cast them off in wrath And fill them with dismay. 7. O would that Zion’s help Were out of Zion come! O would that God might early bring His captive people home! 8. When God from distant lands His exiled ones shall bring, His people shall exultant be, And gladly they shall sing.

Use Me

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: Make use of me, my God! Lyrics: 1 Make use of me, my God! Let me not be forgot; A broken vessel cast aside, One whom Thou needest not. 2 I am Thy creature, Lord, And made by hands divine; And I am part, however mean, Of this great world of Thine. 3 Thou usest all Thy works, The weakest things that be; Each has a service of its own, For all things wait on Thee. 4 Thou usest stars on high, And tiny drops of dew, The giant peak and little hill; My God, Oh use me too! 5 Thou usest tree and flower, The rivers vast and small; The eagle great, the little bird That sings upon the wall. 6 Thou usest stretching sea, And little hidden lake; The pine upon the alpine cliff, The lily in the brake. 7 The towering rock in vale, The sand-grain by the sea, The thunder of the rolling cloud, The murmur of the bee. 8 All things do serve Thee here, All creatures, great and small; Make use of me, of me, my God, The meanest of them all!
