Village Hymns
THE eye of God is everywhere,
To watch the sinner’s ways;
He sees who joins in humble prayer,
And who in solemn praise.
2
One glance of Thine, eternal Lord,
Can pierce and search us through;
Nor heaven, nor earth, nor hell afford
A shelter from Thy view!
3
The universe, in every part,
At once before Thee lies;
And every thought of every heart
Is open to Thine eyes.
4
Prepare us, Lord, to pray and praise,
With fervent, holy love,
And fit us by Thy word of grace
To worship Thee above.
