Thou art GREAT, and doest wondrous things: Thou art God alone. (Psa. 86:10)
Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done GREAT things: O God, who is like unto Thee! (Psa. 71:19)

And when I think that God His Son not
   sparing,
Sent Him to die — I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross my burden fully bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin:
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to
   Thee:
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!

Take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye before the Lord every man his censer. (Num. 16:17)
While the King sitteth at His table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof. (Song of Sol. 1:12)
We are unto God a sweet savor of Christ. (2 Cor. 2:15)
Much incense is ascending
   Before the eternal throne;
God graciously is bending
   To hear each feeble groan;
To all our prayers and praises
   Christ adds His sweet perfume,
And love the censer raises,
   These odors to consume.

Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed. (Job 38:11)
He gave to the sea His decree, that the waters should not pass His commandment. (Prov. 8:29)

When ocean’s bed was measured out,
   And spread the hoary deep,
Thou gavest the flood a firm decree
   In its own bounds to keep.
How can we sink with such a prop
   As the eternal God,
Who bears the earth’s huge pillars up
   And spread the heavens abroad?

Lord, give us grace, that we obey Thy light;

   found
Steadfast in Thee, and in Thy statutes
   sound.

Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest. (Mic. 2:10)
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And He that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. (Rev. 21:4‑5)
Now in the haven of untroubled rest
   I land at last,
The hunger, and the thirst, and weary quest
   Forever past,
There, Lord, to lose, in bliss of Thine embrace,
   My wayward will;
There, in the radiance of Thy blessed face,
   Be hushed and still;
There, speechless at Thy pierced feet
   See nothing else beside,
And know but this — that Thou art sweet,
   And I am satisfied.

   He spreads our board in peace;
In Him secure may we repose,
   While all our joys increase.
Surely Thy sweet and wondrous love
   Shall measure all our days;
Thy Father’s house, our home above,
   Where dwells eternal praise.

Thou, Lord God, knowest Thy servant. For Thy word’s sake, and according to Thine own heart, hast Thou done all these great things, to make Thy servant know them. Wherefore Thou art great, O Lord God: for there is none like Thee, neither is there any God besides Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. (2 Sam. 7:20‑22)
All Thy works shall praise Thee, O Lord; and Thy saints shall bless Thee. (Psa. 145:10)
All worlds His glorious power confess;
His wisdom all His works express;
But oh, His love! What tongue can tell?
“Our Jesus has done all things well.”
And since our souls have known His love,
What mercies has He made us prove,
Mercies which all our praise excel;
“Our Jesus has done all things well.”

He shall see of the travail of His soul, and shall be satisfied: by His knowledge shall My righteous servant justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities. (Isa. 53:11)
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. (Heb. 12:2)
Oh, Jesus, Lord, who loved me like to Thee?
Fruit of Thy work, with Thee, too, there to
   see
Thy glory, Lord, while endless ages roll,
Myself the prize and travail of Thy soul.
Yet it must be, Thy love had not its rest
Were Thy redeemed not with Thee fully blest;
That love that gives not as the world, but
   shares
All it possesses with its loved co-heirs.

I am like a BROKEN vessel. (Psa. 31:12)

He healeth the BROKEN in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. (Psa. 147:3)
He knows it all — my weight of woe,
   My often tear-dimmed eye,
The stabbing pain, the slow, dull ache,
   And sorrow’s BROKEN cry.
And this I know — that in my Lord
   Shall all my needs be met;
And I can trust the heart of Him
   Who has not failed me yet.

   And instantly obey;
Let me run to perform His bidding,
   Whatever He may say;
Let me cherish His least commandment,
   And walk in all His ways;
Let me always obey my Savior
   And do just what He says.

The guilty soul, by sin defiled,
   The conscience sore oppressed,
In Thee believing stands approved,
   And finds abiding rest.
Cleansed from our sins, renewed by grace,
   Thy royal throne above,
Blest Savior, is our destined place;
   Our portion there, Thy love.

Onward still the crystal river
   Bears the life of heaven.

But God has promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, undying love.

Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the Lord and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.

(2 Chron. 20:3,9)
I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause. (Job 5:8)
I do not know what may befall
   Of sunshine or of rain;
I do not know what may be mine
   Of pleasure or of pain;
But this I know — my Savior knows,
   And whatsoe’er it be,
Still I can trust His love to give
   What will be best for me.

Jesus … said, It is finished: and He bowed His head, and gave up the ghost. (John 19:30)
Lord, e’en to death Thy love could go,
   A death of shame and loss,
To vanquish for us every foe,
   And break the strong man’s force.
Thy Father, in His gracious love,
   Did spare Thee from His side;
And Thou didst stoop to bear above,
   At such a cost, Thy bride.

Lord, Thou wilt ordain peace for us: for Thou also hast wrought all our works in us. (Isa. 26:12)
The Lord of peace Himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all. (2 Thess. 3:16)
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
   When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
   It is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials
      should come,
   Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
   And has shed His own blood for my soul.

I must decide: What shall my answer be?
The world allures and beckons harmlessly;
The Savior stoops and whispers lovingly,
   I died for thee!
The choice is made; my heart must not divide,
Part for the world, and part for Him who died;
Henceforth may I be found close to His side
   Who died for me!

At the commandment of the Lord the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of the Lord they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents. (Num. 9:18)
In this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven. We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Wherefore we labor, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of Him. (2 Cor. 5:2,8‑9)
Here in the body pent,
   Absent from Him we roam,
Yet nightly pitch our moving tent
   A day’s march nearer home.
There shall all clouds depart;
   The wilderness shall cease;
And sweetly shall each gladdened heart
   Enjoy eternal peace.

In the silence I have heard Him:
   (Oh, the music of His voice!)
“Peace I give thee; be not troubled;
   Let thy heart and soul rejoice.”

Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto Thee daily. Rejoice the soul of Thy servant: for unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever. (Psa. 107:1)
The trembling hand clutches His
   And loses all its fear;
The weeping eyes can search His Word
   And read His promise clear;
The broken heart rests in His love
   Until its faith prevails;
The childlike mind can reach the source
   Where wisdom never fails.

And while we live, to Thee we give

   It tells God’s love unbounded
To ruined man ere time began,
   Or heaven and earth were founded.

I take Thy hand, and fears grow still;
Behold Thy face, and doubts remove;
Who would not yield his wavering will
To God of truth and boundless love?
That love this restless soul does teach
The strength of Thine eternal calm;
And tune its sad but broken speech
To notes of the eternal psalm.

Power, with thoughts of Christ, men’s hearts to stir;
For, having knelt to touch His garment’s hem,
Their garments smell of myrrh.
So grant, I pray Thee, Lord, that by Thy grace
The fragrance of Thy life may dwell in me,
That as I move about from place to place,
Men’s thoughts may turn to Thee.

Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hireling? (Job 7:1)

Prepare to meet thy God. (Amos 4:12)
He waiteth in patience for sinners to trust Him,
And says: “I receive you now just as you are;
Salvation and pardon I heartily offer
To all who receive Me by faith in their heart.”
No time should be wasted; your moments are
   precious;
Your time for departing from earth draweth
   nigh;
Then come now this moment and He will
   receive you,
And spend, with Him, your eternity on high.

And His saints, by man rejected,
   All His heavenly glory share:

   When the shadows of life hang low;
Where rest and peace and comfort meet —

   Of earthly care and worldly strife;
No more the wounds, no more the pains —
   Eternal joy, eternal life
      In His everlasting arms!

Nothing desire, apart from Thee!

The Lord hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet. He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers. (Nah. 1:3)

   No change my heart shall fear,
And safe is such confiding,
   For nothing changes here;
The storm may roar without me,
   My heart may low be laid,
But God is round about me,
   And can I be dismayed?
