Analysis of Dreams
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
The mystery is revealed,
In a vision of the night;
The message that was concealed,
God in Heaven gave insight.
Bless be the name of the Lord,
Who belongs wisdom and might;
For He is loved and adored,
As He guides us with His light.
He changes time and season,
He removes and sets up kings;
His knowledge is the reason,
That His understanding brings.
The secret things He reveals,
What is hidden in darkness;
The source of what dwells it heals,
Clothes us in our starkness.
I thank the Lord our God,
I give Him the thanks and praise;
Wisdom and might to applaud,
Making known throughout my days.
