How shall I sing that majesty
Author: John Mason (1646-1694) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139:17 Lyrics: 1 How shall I sing that Majesty
which angels do admire?
Let dust in dust and silence lie;
sing, sing, ye heavenly choir.
Thousands of thousands stand around
thy throne, O God most high;
ten thousand times ten thousand sound
thy praise; but who am I?
2 Thy brightness unto them appears,
whilst I thy footsteps trace;
a sound of God comes to my ears,
but they behold thy face.
They sing because thou art their Sun:
Lord, send a beam on me;
for where heaven is but once begun
there alleluias be.
3 How great a being, Lord, is thine,
which doth all beings keep!
Thy knowledge is the only line
to sound so vast a deep.
Thou art a sea without a shore,
a sun without a sphere;
thy time is now and evermore,
thy place is everywhere. Topics: Adoration Of God; God in majesty; God names and imags of Used With Tune: COE FEN

Herr! du erforschest mich
Author: E. Kuester Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 139 Lyrics: 1 Herr! du erforschest mich,
Dir bin ich nie verborgen;
Du kennst mein ganzes Thun,
Siehst alle meine sorgen.
Was meine Seele denkt,
War dir bereits bekannt,
Eh' der gedanke noch
In meiner feel entstand.
2 Nie spricht mein Mund ein wort,
Das du, O Herr! nicht wissest.
Du schaffest, was ich thu';
Du ordnest, du beschliessest,
Was mir begegnen soll.
Erstaunt seh' ich auf dich;
Wie groß ist dein verstand,
Wie wunderbar für mich.
3 Wohin, wohin soll ich
Vor deinem Geiste fliehen?
Un welchen oft kann ich
Mich deinem aug' entziehen?
Führ' ich zum Himmel auf:
So bist du Höchster! da;
Führ ich zur tief' hinab;
Auch hier bist du mir nah!
4 Nähm; ich auch,
schnell zu fliehn,
Die sittige vom morgen:
Selbst an dem fernsten Meer
Bleib ich hier auch gleich
Den menschen unbekannt:
Gott! so umschlösse mich
Doch deiner Allmacht hand.
5 Wollt' ich in Finsternis
Mich deinem aug' entziehen;
So sucht' ich doch umsonst
Auch da dir zu entfliehen.
Denn auch die Finsternis
Ist vor dir helles licht;
Die nacht glänzt wie der tag,
Vor deinem Angesicht.
6 Im Mutterliebe schon
War ich von dir umgeben,
Von dir gebildet, Gott!
Von dir geführt in's leben.
Ich danke dir, daß du
Mich wunderbar gemacht,
Und meiner, eh' ich war,
Schon väterlich gedacht.
7 Du kanntest mein Gebein,
Eh' ich ans licht gekommen,
Da ich im dunkeln erst
Die Bildung angenommen;
Dein Auge sah mich schon,
Eh' ich bereitet war,
Und meiner tage lauf
War dir schon offenbar.
8 Was für Erkenntnisse,
Für köstliche Gedanken!
Unzahlbar sind sie mir;
Denn sie sind ohne Schranken.
Mit Ehrfurcht will ich stets
Auf dich, mein Schöpfer feh'n,
Dir folgen und dein lob,
So gut ich kann, erhöh'n.
9 Erforsche mich, mein Gott!
Und prüfe, wie ochs meine,
Ob ich rechtschaffen bin,
Wie ich von auffen scheine.
Sieh, ob mein fuß vielleicht
Sich einem Irrweg naht,
Und leite meinen gang
Auf ebnen, sichern Pfad. Topics: Wahrheiten, welche aus der Erkenntniß fließen Von Gottes Daseyn
Herr! du erforschest mich
