Verse 1 ~ Before Jehovah’s awful throne,      Ye nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone;      He can create, and He destroy. Verse 2 ~ 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. Verse 3 ~ We’ll crowd His gates with thankful songs,      High as the heavens our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,      Shall fill His courts with sounding praise. Verse 4 ~ Wide as the world is His command,      Vast as Eternity His love; Firm as a rock His truth shall stand,      When rolling years shall cease to move.
