High in the heavens, eternal God
1
High in the heavens, eternal God,Thy goodness in full glory shines;Thy truth shall break through every cloudThat vails thy just and wise designs.
2
Forever firm thy justice stands,As mountains their foundations keep;Wise as the wonders of thy hands,Thy judgments are a mighty deep.
3
O God, how excellent thy grace,Whence all our hope and comfort spring!The sons of Adam, in distress,Fly to the shadow of thy wing.
4
In the provisions of thy houseWe still shall find a sweet repast;There mercy like a river flows,And brings salvation to our taste.
