Eternal Power, Almighty God

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9433 Lyrics: 1 Eternal power, almighty God, Who can approach Thy throne? Unfading light is Thine abode, To mortal man unknown. 2 Before the radiance of Thine eye, The heavens no longer shine; And all the glories of the sky Are but the shade of Thine. 3 Great God, and wilt Thou condescend To cast a look below? To this vile world Thy notice bend— These seats of sin and woe. 4 How strange, how wondrous is Thy love! With trembling we adore: Not all the exalted minds above Its wonders can explore. 5 While golden harps and angel tongues Resound immortal lays, Great God, permit our humble songs To celebrate Thy praise.

Accessless light is thine abode, To angel eyes unknown. 2 Before the radiance of thine eye, The heavens no longer shine; And all the glories of the sky Are but the shade of thine. 3 Great God, and wilt thou condescend To cast a look below? To this dark world thy notice bend-- These seats of sin and woe? 4 How strange, how wondrous is thy love! With trembling we adore: Not all th' exalted minds above Its wonders can explore. 5 While golden harps and angel tongues Resound immortal lays, Great God, permit our humble songs To rise and speak thy praise.
