Thy Majesty, How Vast It Is

Author: Johann Scheffler (Angelus), 1624-1677 Hymnal: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church #219 (1969) Lyrics: 1 Thy majesty, how vast it is, And how immense the glory, Which Thou, O Jesus, dost possess; Both heaven and earth adore Thee; The legions of angels exalt Thy great Name, Thy glory and might are transcendent; And thousands of thousands Thy praises proclaim, Upon Thee gladly dependent. 2 Thy Father’s equal, God the Son, With Him Thou ever reignest; Thou art partaker of His throne, And all things Thou sustainest; Both angels and men view their Maker as man, With joy that is past all expression; O happy, unspeakably happy, who can In Jesus find life and salvation. 3 The Church on earth, in humble strain, Exalteth Christ, our Savior, She sings, “The Lamb for us was slain, Our foe is cast for ever; For Christ hath redeemed us with His precious blood Out of every nation and kindred, And make us thereby kings and priests unto God. To Him thanksgiving be rendered.” Topics: God the Son Praise and Adoration of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: THY MAJESTY
