279 Who fathoms the eternal The ancient prince of hell
Hath risen with purpose fell;
thought? Strong mail of craft and power He weareth in

Verse 1 this hour;
Who fathoms the eternal thought? On earth is not his fellow. 1/4
Who talks of scheme and plan?
Verse 2
The Lord is God! He needeth not With forces of arms we nothing can,
The poor device of man. 1/5 Full soon were we down ridden;
But for us fights the proper Man, Whom God
Verse 2 himself hath bidden.
I see the wrong that round me lies, Ask ye: Who is this same?
I feel the guilt within; Christ Jesus is his name,
The Lord Sabbaoth's Son;
I hear, with groan and travail cries, He, and no other one,
The world confess its sin. 2/5 Shall conquer in the battle. 2/4

Verse 3 Verse 3
Yet, in the maddening maze of things, And were this world all devils o'er,
And tossed by storm and flood, And watching to devour us,
We lay it not to heart so sore; Not they can over
To one fixed stake my spirit clings; power us.
I know that God is good! 3/5
And let the prince of ill
Verse 4 Look grim as e'er he will,
And if my heart and flesh are weak He harms us not a whit;
To bear an untried pain, For why? his doom is writ;
A word shall quickly slay him. 3/4
The bruised reed he will not break,
But strengthen and sustain. 4/5 Verse 4
