Great God, how infinite art thou!

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #20 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Great God, how infinite art thou! How frail and weak are we! Let the whole race of creatures bow, And pay their praise to thee. 2 Thy throne eternal ages stood, Ere seas or heav'n was made; Thou art the ever-living God, Were all the nations dead. 3 Nature and time all open lie To thine immense survey, From the formation of the sky, To the last awful day. 4 Eternity, with all its years, Stands present to thy view. To thee there's nothing old appears; Great God! there's nothing new. 5 Our lives thro' various scenes are drawn, And vex'd with trifling cares; While thine eternal thought moves on Thine undisturb'd affairs. 6 Great God, how infinite art thou! How poor and weak are we! Let the whole race of creatures bow, And pay their praise to thee. Topics: Being and Perfections of God; God eternal and unchangeable
