HYMN 4.
The Wisdom of GOD great.
1 WE of thy Wisdom will, O Lord, not only speak but sing; For 'tis from hence that all true Good to us, O Lord, doth spring. 2 Thy Wisdom and most Sovereign Grace most gloriously do shine; Let us see it with open Face, and Praise that Name of thine.
3 In thy own Wisdom let's be Wise; thy Wisdom let's Adore, And trust in it, so shall we, Lord, sing Praise for Evermore. 4 Thy Wisdom is a mighty deep, which Angels do admire; Creation-Work demonstrates it, Redemption rises higher.
5 The wonder of thy Wisdom, Lord, and sublime Rule likewise, Tis o'er all Things, and Persons here, and marvellous in our Eyes. 6 All Wisdom Saints and Angels have, from Thee it doth proceed; And from thy Wisdom we receive all good things we do need.
