The God of Thunder

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Times and Seasons The Seasons of the Year First Line: O the immense, th' amazing height Lyrics: 1 O the immense! th' amazing height. The boundless grandeur of a God, Who treads the worlds beneath his feet, And sways the nations with his nod! 2 He speaks; and lo, all nature shakes, Heaven's everlasting pillars bow, He rends the clouds with hideous cracks, And shouts his fiery arrows thro'. 3 Well let the nations start and fly At the blue lightning's horrid glare, Atheists and emperors shrink and die, When flame and noise torment the air. 4 Let noise and flame confound the skies, And drown the spacious realms below, Yet we will sing the thunderer's praise, And send our loud hosannas thro'. 5 Celestial king, thy blazing power Kindles our hearts to flaming joys, We shout to hear thy thunders roar, And echo to our father's voice. 6 Thus shall the God our Savior come, And lightnings round his chariot play, Ye lightnings, fly to make him room, Ye glorious storms prepare his way.
