My God, in whom
are all the springs
Of boundless love,
and grace unknown,
Hide me beneath thy spreading wings,
Till the dark cloud is overblown.
Up to the heav'ns I send my cry,
The Lord will my desires perform;
He sends his angel from the sky,
And saves me from
the threat'ning storm.
Be thou exalted, O my God,
Above the heav'ns,
where angels dwell;
Thy power on earth be known abroad,
And land to land thy wonders tell.
My heart is fixed;
my song shall raise
Immortal honors to thy name;
Awake, my tongue, to sound his praise,
My tongue, the glory of my frame.
High o'er the earth his mercy reigns,
And reaches to the utmost sky;
His truth to endless years remains,
When lower worlds dissolve and die.
Be thou exalted, O my God,
Above the heav'ns,
where angels dwell;
Thy power on earth be known abroad,
And land to land thy wonders tell.
---Alternative verses---
Up to the heavens I raise my cry;
The Lord will my desires perform;
He sends his angel from the sky,
And saves me from the threatening storm
