Text: | Psalm 36 |
Author: | Isaac Watts |
Tune: | ST. ALBAN |
1 High in the heavens, eternal God!
Thy goodness in full glory shines;
Thy truth shall break through every cloud
That vails and darkens thy designs.
2 For ever firm thy justice stands,
As mountains their foundations keep:
Wise are the wonders of thy hands;
Thy judgments are a mighty deep.
3 From the provision for thy house
We shall be fed with sweet repast;
There, mercy like a river flows,
And brings salvation to our taste.
4 Life, like a fountain rich and free,
Springs from the presence of my Lord;
And in thy light our souls shall see
The glories promised in thy word.
