Blessings Brought

Tune: Abridge

('My God, my Father, blissful name'

OR' 'Be thou my guardian and my guide')

Psalm 33 v.8-12

*********

Let all the earth fear the Lord, let

Them all stand in awe yet

For He spoke, and it was done, He

Commands, it stands fast, see

 

The Lord brings counsel of heathen

To nought, thoughts, plans of men* (*mankind)

He makes their devices not stand

But works by His own hand* (*Spirit)

 

The counsel of the Lord stands for

Ever, it firm, strong, sure

And the thoughts of his heart are to

All generations true

 

Blessed is the nation whose God is

The Lord, e'en so is this

The people He has chosen hence

For His inheritance
