If He makes all things tend to our edification, let us make all things tend to His exultation.
— Thomas Watson
Psalm 139
Lord, thou hast searched me, and dost know
Where’er I rest, where’er I go;
Thou knowest all that I have planned,
And all my ways are in thy hand.
My words from thee I cannot hide;
I feel thy power on every side;
O wondrous knowledge, awful might,
Unfathomed depth, unmeasured height!
— Psalm 139
The Decrees of God
Whate’er my God ordains is right: Holy His will abideth;
I will be still whate’er He doth, And follow where He guideth:
He is my God; Though dark my road,
He holds me that I shall not fall;
Wherefore to Him I leave it all.
— Samuel Rodigast
Exalt the Lord
I know the Lord is high in state,
Above all gods our Lord is great;
The Lord performs what he decrees,
In heaven and earth, in depths and seas.
He makes the vapors to ascend
In clouds from earth’s remotest end;
The lightnings flash at his command,
He holds the tempest in his hand.
— The Psalter
