SECTION I.

THE EXISTENCE, ATTRIBUTES, AND WORKS OF GOD.

HYMN 1.

L. M.

GOD is a name my soul adores,

The almighty Three, the eternal One!
Nature and grace, with all their powers,
Confess the Infinite Unknown.

2 Thy voice produced the seas and spheres, Bid the waves roll, and planets shine; But nothing like thyself appears,

Through all these spacious works of thine.

3 Still restless nature dies and grows;
From change to change the creatures run:
Thy being no succession knows,
And all thy vast designs are one.

4 How shall astonished mortals dare
To sing thy glory or thy grace!
Beneath thy feet we lie so far,
And see but shadows of thy face.

5 Who can behold the blazing light?
Who can approach consuming flame?
None but thy wisdom knows thy might;
None but thy word can speak thy name.
