Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Hymnal: The Worshipbook #306 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed Lyrics: 1 Before the Lord Jehovah's throne, All nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone, He can create, and he destroy; 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, He brought us to his fold again. 3 We'll crowd his gates with thankful songs, High as the heavens our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shall fill his courts with sounding praise, Shall fill his courts with sounding praise. 4 Wide as the world is his command, Vast as eternity his love; Firm as a rock his truth shall stand, When rolling years shall cease to move, When rolling years shall cease to move.
