BEFORE Jehovah's awful throne, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone, He can create, and he destroy.
His sovereign power, without our aid, Made us of clay, and formed us men; And, when like wandering sheep we strayed, He brought us to his fold again.
We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs. High as the heavens our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.
Wide as the world is thy command. Vast as eternity thy love; Firm as a rock thy truth must stand, When rolling years shall cease to move.
