Hymns - Beyond All Mortal Praise - Текст песни

Beyond all mortal praise
God's Name b ever blest,
unsearchable his ways,
his glory manifest;
from his high throne
in power and might
by wisdom's light
he rules alone.

Our times are in his hand
to whom all flesh is grass,
while as their Maker planned
the changing seasons pass.
He orders all:
before his eyes
earth's empires rise,
her kingdoms fall.

He gives to humankind,
dividing as he will,
all powers of heart and mind,
of spirit, strength and skill:
Nor dark nor night
but must lay bare
its secretes, where
he dwells in light.

To God the only Lord,
our fathers' God, be praise;
his holy Name adored
through everlasting days.
His mercies trace
in answered prayer,
in love and care,
and gifts of grace.
