William Cowper Quotes About Blessings

Quotes about: Blessings

• God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants his footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. Deep in unfathomable mines Of never failing skill He treasures up his bright designs, And works his sovereign will. Ye fearful saints fresh courage take, The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust him for his grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face.

  William Cowper

  Courage, Failure, Moving

• Ye fearful saints fresh courage take, The clouds you so much dread Are big with mercy and shall break, With blessings on your head

  William Cowper, “Light Shining Out Of Darkness”

• Alas! if my best Friend, who laid down His life for me, were to remember all the instances in which I have neglected Him, and to plead them against me in judgment, where should I hide my guilty head in the day of recompense? I will pray, therefore, for blessings on my friends, even though they cease to be so, and upon my enemies, though they continue such.

  William Cowper

  Forgiveness, Blessing, Enemy
