While thee I seek, protecting Power

Author: Helen M. Williams Appears in 684 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While thee I seek, protecting Power, Be my vain wishes stilled; And may this consecrated hour With better hopes be filled. 2 Thy love the power of thought bestowed, To thee my thoughts would soar; Thy mercy o'er my life has flowed; That mercy I adore. 3 In each event of life, how clear Thy ruling hand I see; Each blessing to my soul is dear, Because conferred by thee. 4 In every joy that crowns my days, In every pain I bear, My heart shall find delight in praise, Or seek relief in prayer. 5 When gladness wings my favored hour, Thy love my thoughts shall fill; Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower, My soul shall meet thy will. 6 My lifted eye without a tear, The gathering storm shall see; My steadfast heart shall know no fear; Because it rests on thee.

There is a book that all may read

Author: John Keble Appears in 184 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a book that all may read, Which heavenly truth imparts; And all the lore its scholars need, And all the lore its scholars need, Pure eyes and Christian hearts. 2 The works of God above, below, Within us, and around, Are pages in that book, to show How God himself is found. 3 The glorious sky, embracing all, Is like the Maker's love, Wherewith encompassed, great and small, In peace and order move. 4 The dew of heaven is like thy grace, It steals in silence down; But where it falls, the favored place By richest fruits is known. 5 Thou who has given me eyes to see, And love for what is fair, Give me a heart to find out thee, And read thee everywhere.
