Praise to the Lord, who hath fearfully, wondrously, made thee! Health hath vouchsafed and, when heedlessly falling, hath stayed thee. What need or grief Ever hath failed of relief? Wings of His mercy did shade thee. |

Greetings from California! I too awoke very early this morning with this grand old hymn in my heart! Most of verse one came easily to mind, with a mix of phrases from other verses cobbling together thereafter. I felt compelled to search for the proper word alignment and here I am. For so many from all over the world to have the same early morning recollection of this hymn and meet here to share the experience is truly amazing! I believe we will sing it together in His presence and wonder anew at how magnificent is our God! Until then I pray his peace upon you.

I awoke early this morning singing the first line from this hymn. I barely know the first verse. I looked up the words and Verse 2 really spoke to me as a consolation.
We serve an amazing God who finds many ways to speak to our hearts to comfort us. Ave Christus Rex

One of the most powerful hymns.
The lyrics gets me every dam time.
"Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do,
Who with His love doth befriend thee."

Along with the Doxology this hymn is most inspirational to me. So many times it has come to lift me from depths of defeat and brought me to the joy of exultation in His faithfulness. What an amazing God we are privileged to know, love and serve.

Thanks Carol
Interestingly this hymn came into my mind this morning as well while I was reading my devotions but I couldn’t remember all of the words so looked it up on the internet and saw your comments. God is truly amazing.
