Almighty God! thy special grace
Author: Penina Moïse Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Almighty God! thy special grace
In seasons of distress,
Hath ever by the Hebrew race
Been gratefully confest.
2. When lots were cast with evil aim
Thy people to destroy,
From thee the great decision came
That turned their tears to joy.
3. Earth's mightiest at thy decree
E'en to the frailest yield,
And Susa's shore, and Egypt's sea,
Proclaim thee Israel's shield.
4. The mourner at the palace gate,
The maiden on the throne
Were but the instruments of fate
To make God’s mercy known.
5. To thee alone the praise belongs,
Who with a Father’s hand,
From Judah’s race averts the wrongs
By adversaries planned.
6. Let proud, ungodly men elate
With triumphs of an hour;
Remember Heaven can frustrate
Each dark device of pow’r.
7. Sov’reign of worlds! thou wilt extend
Thy sceptre to the just,
The rights of innocents defend,
And bring their foes to dust. Text Sources: Hymns Written for the Service of the Hebrew Congregation Beth Elohim, South Carolina, 1842
