Israel all his care shall prove Kept by watchful providence, And ever-waking love. Olo Additional Hymn*. 4 See the Lord, thy Keeper, stand Omnipotently near ! Lo ! he holds thee by thy hand, And banishes thy fear ; Shadows with his wings thy head ; Guards from all impending harms ; -- Round thee and beneath are spread The everlasting arms. 5 Christ shall bless thy going out, Shall bless thy coming in ; Kindly compass thee about, Till thou art saved from sin ; Like thy spotless Master, thou, Fill'd with wisdom, love, and power, Holy, pure, and perfect, -- now, Henceforth, and evermore. HYMN 557. 10\s. 1 ^VHE servants of God, Your Master proclaim, A And publish abroad His wonderful name ; The name all victorious Of Jesus extol ; His kingdom is glorious, And rules over all. 2 The waves of the sea Have lift up their voice, Sore troubled that we In Jesus rejoice ; The floods they are roaring, But Jesus is here , While we are adoring, He always is near. 3 God ruleth on high, Almighty to save ; And still he is nigh, His presence we have ; The great congregation His triumph shall sing, Ascribing salvation To Jesus our King. 4 u Salvation to God Who sits on the throne," Let all cry aloud, And honour the Son ; Our Jesus' s praises The angels proclaim, Fall down on their faces, And worship the Lamb.
