My God, how wonderful thou art!
1
My God, how wonderful thou art!Thy majesty how bright!How beautiful thy mercy-seat,In depths of burning light!
2
How dread are thine eternal years,O everlasting Lord!By prostrate angels day and nightIncessantly adored!
3
How beautiful, how beautiful,The sight of thee must be!—Thine endless wisdom, boundless power,And awful purity!
4
O how I fear thee, living God!With deepest, tenderest fears;And worship thee with trembling hopeAnd penitential tears.
5
Yet I may love thee too, O Lord!Almighty as thou art;For thou hast stooped to ask of meThe love of my poor heart.
