O Thou, in all Thy might so far

Frederick Lucian Hosmer (1876) • English

Primary Scripture: Zephaniah 3:17

Verse 1

O THOU in all thy might so far, In all thy love so near, Beyond the range of sun and star, And yet beside us here.

Verse 2

What heart can comprehend thy name, Or searching find thee out, Who art within, a quickening flame, A presence round about?

Verse 3

Yet though I know thee but in part, I ask not, Lord, for more; Enough for me to know thou art, To love thee and adore.

Verse 4

And dearer than all things I know Is childlike faith to me, That makes the darkest way I go An open path to thee.
