Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CBWM1872 #1 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awesome throne,
All nations, bow with sacred joy:
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create, and He destroy.
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.
3 We are His people, we His care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy Name?
4 We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs,
High as the heaven our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
5 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. Topics: Worship Praise and Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 100TH PSALM
