Hymn 348 — How good and great, O Father,
| 348 | W. H. TROWBRIDGE | 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6. |
| 1 |
How good and great, O Father, Thy wondrous thoughts are shown! Concealed from wise and prudent, Revealed to babes alone. But having understanding, And Spirit-given joy, To bless Thee, God our Father, We heart and voice employ. | |
| 2 |
Father, Thine own Son praised Thee, Of heav'n and earth the Lord! Thy sovereign operations Great joy to Thee afford: For all those coming to Him -- The meek and lowly Man -- Are held by Him for ever, The fruit of Thy great plan. | |
| 3 |
Each knowing Thee as Father -- Revealed so by the Son -- We share His joy before Thee In all that Thou hast done. The Son Thou, Father, knowest; But in that Man so blest, To whom Thou'st given all things, Our souls find perfect rest. | |
