Author: Gerhard Tersteegen; John Wesley Appears in 289 hymnals First Line: Lo, God is here, let us adore! Lyrics: 1 Lo! God is here, let us adore!
How awe-inspiring is this place!
Let all within us feel the power
and silent bow before God's face.
Who know this power, God's grace who prove
serve God with fear, with rev'rence love.
Who know this power, God's grace who prove,
serve God with fear, with rev'rence love.
2 Gladly the things of earth we leave,
wealth, honor, fame, for you alone;
to you our will, soul, flesh we give;
O take and seal them for your own!
You are the God, you are the Lord;
be now by all your works adored.
You are the God, you are the Lord;
be now by all your works adored.
3 Being of beings, may our praise
your courts with grateful fragrance fill;
still may we stand before your face,
still hear and do your sovereign will;
to you may all our thoughts arise,
ceaseless, accepted sacrifice.
To you may all our thoughts arise,
ceaseless, accepted sacrifice.
