Lord of the worlds above

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #219b (1917) Topics: House of God Lyrics: 1 Lord of the worlds above, How pleasant and how fair The dwellings of Thy love, Thy earthly temples, are! To Thine abode my heart aspires, With warm desires to see my God. 2 O happy souls that pray Where God delights to hear! O happy men that pay Their constant service there! They praise Thee still, and happy they Who love the way to Zion's hill! 3 They go from strength to strength Through this dark vale of tears, Till each o'ercomes at length, Till each in heaven appears; O glorious seat! Thou God, our King, Shalt thither bring our willing feet. 4 God is our sun and shield, Our light and our defence; With gifts His hands are filled, We draw our blessings thence; He shall bestow upon our race His saving grace, and glory too 5 The Lord His people loves; His hand no good withholds From those His heart approves, From holy, humble souls; Thrice happy he, O Lord of hosts, Whose spirit trust alone in Thee!
