Deep on Deep
O God, thy power is wonderful,
Thy glory passing bright;
Thy wisdom, with its deep on deep,
A rapture to the sight!
All lives may draw upon thy power,
Thy mercy may command, —
And still outflows thy silent sea,
Immutable and grand!
Thy grandeur is all tenderness,
All motherlike and meek;
The hearts that will not come to it,
Humbling itself to seek.
O little heart of mine, shall pain
Or sorrow make thee moan,
When all this God is all for thee,
A Father all thine own?
Thy glory passing bright;
Thy wisdom, with its deep on deep,
A rapture to the sight!
All lives may draw upon thy power,
Thy mercy may command, —
And still outflows thy silent sea,
Immutable and grand!
Thy grandeur is all tenderness,
All motherlike and meek;
The hearts that will not come to it,
Humbling itself to seek.
O little heart of mine, shall pain
Or sorrow make thee moan,
When all this God is all for thee,
A Father all thine own?
