In all Thy work, O Lord, Thou didst
|
|
| 1. | In all Thy work, O Lord, Thou didst |
| | At Calv'ry's cross once come to rest; |
| | Yet Thou art working still today, |
| | But in another form expressed. |
| 2. | Thy saving pow'r Thou still dost show; |
| | Thou still dost speak, enlighten, guide; |
| | Thou and the Spirit in one stream |
| | Sweep many in Thy living tide. |
| 3. | Through Him Thy power's not withheld; |
| | Through Him Thy working does not cease; |
| | Thou still dost comfort and command, |
| | Encourage, strengthen, and release. |
| 4. | Since Thou art with the Spirit one |
| | His coming means that Thou hast come, |
| | And His indwelling is Thine own, |
| | Since Thou the Spirit hast become. |
| 5. | He executes within my heart |
| | All Thy desires and Thy demands, |
| | As for the Father here on earth |
| | Thou hast performed all His commands. |
| 6. | By knowing Him we know Thyself; |
| | Obeying Him we Thee obey; |
| | Allowing Him ourselves to fill, |
| | We're filled with Thee, O wondrous way! |
| 7. | Thou art not far away in heav'n, |
| | Leaving us here alone, apart; |
| | But Thou art still on earth; how grand! |
| | Thou livest right within my heart. |
