The Lord looked down from heaven's high tower

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #258 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 the Lord looked down from heaven's high tower, And all the sons of men did view, To see if any owned His power, If any truth or justice knew; 2 But all, He saw, were gone aside, All were degenerate grown, and base; None took religion for their guide, Not one of all the sinful race. 3 How will they tremble, then, for fear, When His just wrath shall them o'ertake: For to the righteous God is near, And never will their cause forsake. 4 Oh that from Sion he'd employ His might, and burst th' oppressive band! Then shouts of universal joy Should loudly echo through the land. Topics: Man a Sinner Depraved Scripture: Psalm 14 Languages: English
