494. “The Lord reigneth, let the Earth rejoice.”
1
When wars and strifes appear,—The Temple, men, prophane;
This thought should calm, and cheer,
Omnipotence doth reign!
The Lord upon the whirlwind rides,
And he the wheels of nature guides.
2
Though foes may raise their voice,Yet, God their power restrains;
Then let the earth rejoice,
The Lord of Glory reigns!
The storm that sweeps, the sun that shines,
Alike completes his vast designs.
3
Let faith, by night and day,Our sinking hearts sustain;
Our God all worlds obey,
The Lord alone doth reign!
He makes the wrath of man fulfil
The secret purpose of his will.
4
If God doth ever reign,Alike o'er friend and foe,
Why should our hearts complain
Of any want below?
The God that rules both earth and sky,
Will every needful good supply.
5
O, for a child-like mindTo ask, and humbly wait!
I hence would be resign'd,
And learn, in every state,
To cast my burthen on the Lord,
And trust his promise, prize his word.
