Praise to the Lord, who o’er all
things so wondrously reigneth,
Who, as on wings of an eagle,
uplifteth, sustaineth.
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires all have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?

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.

Ponder a new!!
How often I get stuck in my "sinken thinken" Each thought is yet another opportunity to Ponder a new what the Almighty can do. He did it all. All I have to do is to accept it. Jesus did it all, all to Him I owe.

Our God is our Friend, our Father, our hope, our Redeemer and a consuming fire. I love this song especially where it says He befriends us. Praise to The Lord. Wish more people could know the benovolence and terror of the Creator of all.

As a [theology] student in Bremen, Germany, Joachim Neander lived a Godless life. Then, when Neander was 20, a preacher named Under-Eyke came to Bremen and Neander was converted.
Four years later he became headmaster of a school in Dusseldorf, and during his time there he wrote more than 60 hymns. Because of his strong Christian views and his evangelistic activities [and his popularity with the common people - Wikepedia], he displeased the authorities and was eventually removed from his position.
Despite the tensions, he wrote many hymns of praise. He often wandered through the valleys and hills near Dusseldorf, communing with his Lord. After losing his position at the school, he lived for a time in a cave and continued to write hymns. He died very young at the age of 30, but he left behind him a legacy of praise to God. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown & Norton
-------------------
While living in Dusseldorf, he liked to go to the nearby valley of the Düssel river, nature being the inspiration for his poems. He also held gatherings and services in the valley, at which he gave sermons. The Neandertal (German thal for valley, modernized to tal) was renamed in his honor in the early 19th century, and became famous in 1856 when the remains of the Homo neanderthalensis (Neanderthal Man) were found there. - Wikipedia
