The God of Providence and Grace

Verse 1

Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before Him stand; for, lo, He spake and it was done, And all the sovereign power begun Stood fast at His command.

Verse 2

He makes the nations' counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by His hand; Jehovah's counsel stands secure, His purposes of heart endure, For evermore they stand.

Verse 3

O truly is the nation blest Whose God before the world confessed Jehovah is alone; And blest the people is whom He Has made His heritage to be, And chosen for His own.
