Hymn 471 – GOD moves in a mysterious way | C&S English Hymnary

1. GOD moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform He plants His footsteps in the sea And rides upon the storm. 2. Deep in unfathomable mines Of ever-failing skill He treasures up His bright designs And works His sovereign will. 3. Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take The cloud ye so much dread Are big with mercy and shall break In blessings on your head. 4. Judge not the Lord by feeble sense But trust him for His grace Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 5. His purposes will ripen fast Unfolding every hour The bud may have a bitter taste But sweet will be the flower. 6. Blind unbelief is sure to err And seem His work in vain God is His own interpreter And he will make it plain AMEN
