Christ is God

Author: Robert Robinson Appears in 290 hymnals Topics: Advent of Christ To Kingdom First Line: Mighty God! while angels bless thee Lyrics: 1 Mighty God! while angels bless thee, May a mortal lisp thy name? Lord of men, as well as angels! Thou art every creature's theme: Lord of every land and nation! Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation-- Be thy just and awful praise. 2 For the grandeur of thy nature,-- Grand, beyond a seraph's thought; For the wonders of creation, Works with skill and kindness wrought; For thy providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow;-- Blessed be thy gentle reign. 3 For thy rich, thy free redemption, Bright, though vailed in darkness long, Thought is poor, and poor expression; Who can sing that wondrous song? Brightness of the Father's glory! Shall thy praise unuttered lie? Break, my tongue! such guilty silence, Sing the Lord who came to die:-- 4 From the highest throne of glory, To the cross of deepest woe, Came to ransom guilty captives!-- Flow, my praise! for ever flow: Re-ascend, immortal Saviour! Leave thy footstool, take thy throne; Thence return and reign for ever;-- Be the kingdom all thine own! Scripture: Matthew 10:29 Used With Tune: AUTUMN
