O My God, I Fear Thee!
Author: Henrietta O. Dobree Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5170 Meter: 11.11.7.7 First Line: O my God, I fear Thee! Thou art very high Lyrics: 1. O my God, I fear Thee! Thou art very high,
Yet to us, Thy children, Thou art always nigh,
Far removed from mortal sight,
Dwelling in eternal light.
2. O my God, I fear Thee! Yet I come in prayer,
For my Savior tells me I need not despair;
Tells me of a Father’s love,
And a home prepared above.
3. Never earthly father Loveth like to Thee;
Thou dost guide and pardon Guilty ones like me;
Sending down Thy holy Son
That all sinners might be won.
4. O my God, I fear Thee! Holy, just, and true;
But, my heavenly Father, I will love Thee, too;
Guide me till this life be past,
Take me to Thyself at last. Languages: English Tune Title: EUROPA
