Thy way, O Lord, is in the sea

1

Thy way, O Lord, is in the sea;Thy paths I cannot trace,Nor comprehend the mysteryOf thine unbounded grace.

2

As through a glass I dimly seeThe wonders of thy love,How little do I know of thee,Or of the joys above!

3

'Tis but in part I know thy will;I bless thee for the sight:When will thy love the rest revealIn glory's clearer light?

4

With rapture shall I then surveyThy providence and grace,And spend an everlasting dayIn wonder, love, and praise.
