P. 279

I wish to shine so bright;
                      Ever reflecting to lost souls,
                      How great this light can be.
                               4
                      A mansion is in the heavens,
                       That Jesus shall prepare;
                    So all the tender, sweet children
                      May have a place with Him.
             386.  NOT UNTO US, OH, JEHOVAH

                           Ps 115 PSALMS
                 Not unto us all, oh Jehovah, not unto us all,
                     But to your name be the glory,
               //Because of your great love and faithfulness//
                      Why do all the nations say,
                  //"Where is he now their true God?"//
                  //Our God reigns up in the heavens//
                   //He does whatever pleases Him//
                 Their idols are made with silver and gold,
                     Made by the hands of a human;
                  They have mouths, but cannot speak,
                   They have Eyes, but they cannot see.
                 They are made with ears, but cannot hear,
               They're built with Noses, but they cannot smell;
                  They're given Hands, but cannot feel,
                  They have feet, but they cannot walk.
                 ///They have feet///, but they cannot walk,
               ///Nor can they utter sound with their throats///
               All those who make them will  be just like them,
                 //And so will all those who trust in them//
                  //Oh, Israel, trust in the Lord your God//
                   //He is your help and your shield//
                    House of Aaron, trust in the Lord,
                   //He is your help and your shield//
             You who fear him, the Lord God, trust in the Lord God,

                               THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD HYMNAL •  32 3
