1 Great is our Redeeming Lord,
in pow'r, and truth, and grace;
Him, by highest heav'n adored,
His church on earth shall praise.
In the city of our God,
In His holy mount below,
publish, spread His name abroad,
and all His greatness show.
2 For Your loving kindness, Lord,
we in Your temple stay;
here Your faithful love record,
Your saving pow'r display.
With Your name Your praise is known,
glorious Your perfections shine;
earth’s remotest bounds shall own
Your works are all divine.
3 See the gospel church secure,
and founded on a rock;
all her promises are sure;
her bulwarks who can shock?
Count her every precious shrine;
tell, to after ages tell:
fortified by pow'r divine,
the church can never fail.
4 Zion’s God is all our own,
who on His love rely;
we His pardoning love have known,
and live to Christ, and die.
To the new Jerusalem
He our faithful guide shall be;
Him we claim, and rest in Him,
through all eternity.
