As pants the hart for cooling streams
Almighty God! Your Special Grace
Author: Penina Moïse Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Almighty God! your special grace
In seasons of distress,
Has ever by the Hebrew race
Been gratefully confest.
2. When lots were cast with evil aim
Your people to destroy,
From you the great decision came
That turned their tears to joy.
3. Earth's mightiest at your decree
E'en to the frailest yield,
And Susa's shore, and Egypt's sea,
Proclaim you 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 you alone the praise belongs,
Who with a Father’s hand,
From Judah’s race averts the wrongs
By adversaries planned.
6. Let proud, ungodly fools elate
With triumphs of an hour;
Remember Heaven can frustrate
Each dark device of pow’r.
7. Sov’reign of worlds! you will extend
Your sceptre to the just,
The rights of innocents defend,
And bring their foes to dust. Topics: Lent Purim Scripture: Esther 9:20-22 Used With Tune: PSALM XLII
Almighty God! Your Special Grace
