Words
⤢ Full screenWith deepest reverence at thy throne,Jehovah, peerless and unknown!Our feeble spirits strive, in vain,A glimpse of thee, great God! to gain.
Who, by the closest search, can findThe eternal, uncreated mind?Nor men nor angels can exploreThy hights of love, thy depths of power.
That power we trace on every side;O may thy wisdom be our guide;And while we live, and when we die,May thy almighty love be nigh.
