The Divine Goodness
Verse 1
High in the Heav' ns, eternal God, Thy goodness in full glory shines; Thy truth shall break thro' ev' ry cloud That veils and darkens thy designs.
Verse 2
Forever firm thy justice stands, As mountains their foundations keep; Wise are the wonders of thy hands, Thy judgments are a mighty deep.
Verse 3
Thy providence is kind and large; Both man and beast thy bounty share; The whole creation is thy charge, But saints are thy peculiar care.
Verse 4
My God, how excellent thy grace! Whence all our hope and comfort springs; ' Mid earthly woes we sweetly rest Under the shadow of thy wings.
