The Seasons Are Fixed by Wisdom Divine

Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine, The slow changing moon show forth God’s design; The sun in his circuit his Maker obeys, And running his journey hastes not nor delays. 2 The Lord makes the night, when, leaving their lair, The lions creep forth, God’s bounty to share; The Lord makes the morning, when beasts steal away And men are beginning the work of the day. 3 How many and wise Thy works are, O Lord! The earth with the wealth of wisdom is stored; The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro, And creatures unnumbered it shelters below. 4 Thy creatures all look to Thee for their food; Thy hand opens wide, they gather the good; Thy face Thou concealest, in anguish they yearn; Their breath Thou withholdest, to dust they return. 5 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. 6 Before the Lord’s might earth trembles and quakes, The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks; The Lord I will worship through all of my days, Yea, while I have being my God I will praise. 7 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

All glory to God, and peace upon earth, Be published abroad at Jesus’ birth; The forfeited favor of Heaven we find Restored in the Savior and Friend of mankind. 2. Then let us behold Messias the Lord, By prophets foretold, by angels adored; Our God’s incarnation with angels proclaim, And publish salvation in Jesus’ name. 3. Our newly born King by faith we have seen And joyfully sing His goodness to men, That all men may wonder at what we impart, And thankfully ponder His love in their heart. 4. What moved the Most High so greatly to stoop, He comes from the sky our souls to lift up; That sinners forgiven, might sinless return To God and to Heaven; their Maker is born. 5. Immanuel’s love let sinners confess, Who comes from above, to bring us His peace; Let every believer His mercy adore, And praise Him forever, when time is no more.

Whoever receives the life giving Word, In Jesus believes, his God and his Lord, In him a pure river of life shall arise, Shall in the believer spring up to the skies. 4. My God and my Lord! Thy call I obey, My soul on Thy word of promise I stay, Thy kind invitation I gladly embrace, Athirst for salvation, salvation by grace. 5. O hasten the hour! Send down from above The Spirit of power, of health, and of love, Of filial fear, of knowledge and grace, Of wisdom and prayer, of joy and of praise. 6. The Spirit of faith, of faith in Thy blood, Which saves us from wrath, and brings us to God, Removes the huge mountain of indwelling sin, And opens a fountain that washes us clean.

All Conquering Lord, Whom Sinners Adore

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 All conquering Lord, whom sinners adore, Remember Thy Word, and stir up Thy power; Drive Satan before Thee, His advocates chase: Or let them adore Thee and yield to Thy grace. 2 O pity and spare, and save them from death, Plucked out of his snare, snatched out of his teeth; Almighty Redeemer, to whom all things bow, Cast down the blasphemer, and rescue them now. 3 O why should he take Thy purchase away? Thy fury awake, and fly on the prey; Thy purchase recover, that Satan may feel, Thy kingdom is over earth, Heaven, and hell. 4 O answer the prayer of prevalent faith, In mercy forbear these children of wrath, And give them repentance, let mercy take place, Reverse the sad sentence, and save them by grace.
