We would adore our Maker too! From sin and dust to Thee we cry, The Great, the Holy, and the High. 4. Earth from afar hath heard Thy fame, And men have learned to lisp Thy name: But, O! the glories of Thy mind Leave all our soaring thoughts behind! 5. God is in heaven, and men below; Be short our tunes, our words be few! A solemn reverence checks our songs, And praise sits silent on our tongues. Used With Tune: MARYTON
