Have You Not Known, Have You Not Heard

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: TH1990 #31 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Have you not known, have you not heard that firm remains on high the everlasting throne of him who formed the earth and sky? 2 Are you afraid his pow'r shall fail when comes thine evil day? And can an all-creating arm grow weary or decay? 3 Supreme in wisdom as in pow'r the Rock of Ages stands, though him you cannot see, nor trace the working of his hands. 4 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports the fainting heart; and courage in the evil hour his heav'nly aids impart. 5 Mere human pow'r shall fast decay, and youthful vigor cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 6 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine; with growing ardor onward move, with growing brightness shine. 7 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar - their wings are faith and love - till, past the cloudy regions here, they rise to heav'n above.

On Zion's sacred height his kingdom he maintains, and glorious with his saints in light forever reigns. 6 The whole triumphant host gives thanks to God on high; "Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!" they ever cry. Hail Abraham's God and mine! I join the heav'nly lays; all might and majesty are thine, and endless praise.

Hymnal: TH1990 #40 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength, our ever-present aid, and therefore though the earth remove, we will not be afraid; though hills amidst the seas be cast, though foaming waters roar, yea, though the mighty billows shake the mountains on the shore. 2 A river flows whose streams make glad the city of our God, the holy place wherein the Lord Most High has his abode. Since God is in the midst of her, unmoved her walls shall stand, for God will be her early help, when trouble is at hand. 3 The nations raged, the kingdoms moved, but when his voice was heard, the troubled earth was stilled to peace before his mighty word. The Lord of Hosts is on our side, our safety to secure; the God of Jacob is for us a refuge strong and sure. 4 O come, behold what wondrous works Jehovah's hand has wrought; come, see what desolation great he on the earth has brought. To utmost ends of all the earth he causes war to cease; the weapons of the strong destroyed, he makes abiding peace. 5 "Be still and know that I am God, o'er all exalted high; the subject nations of the earth my name shall magnify." The Lord of Hosts is on our side, our safety to secure, the God of Jacob is for us a refuge strong and sure.
