My Eternal Song Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

- MY ETERNAL SONG-
by Miss Caroline

God moves in such a mysterious way
His wonders to preform.
He'll plant His footprint's on the sea
And ride waves upon the storm.

Deep in the deepest darkest mines
Of never-ending skill,
He'll treasure up His bright designs
And work his glorious will.

So, fearful souls, fresh courage take
From those clouds so full of dread
As filled with mercy, they shall break
True blessings o'er our head.

Judge not our Lord with mindless sense
But trust in Him for grace
Behind a frowning recompense
He hides His smiling face.

His purpose will now ripen fast
Unfolding hour by hour
In mouth the bud leaves bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.

Blind unbelief, will sure be error
And see His work as vain,
For God is His own interpreter
And will make His words so plain.

And now Thy kingdom forever stands
While Earthly thrones decay
And time will submit to Your commands
As the Ages roll away.

Thy blessed bounty freely gives
It's inexhaustible store
As all of nature truly lives
On Your sustaining power.

Precious and just in all His ways
God's providence Divine
In all His works immortal rays
Of power and mercy shine.

This praise of God, His immortal theme
Shall fill my heart and tongue
And let all Creation bless His Name
In this.....My eternal song!
