Great Is the LORD, Our God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #42 (2017) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Great is the LORD, our God, and let His praise be great; He makes His churches His abode, His most delightful seat. These temples of His grace, how beautiful they stand, the honors of our native place and bulwarks of our land! 2 Oft have our fathers told, our eyes have often seen, how well our God secures the fold where His own sheep have been. In ev'ry new distress we’ll to His house repair, recall to mind His wondrous grace, and seek deliv'rance there. 3 Far as Thy Name is known, the world declares Thy praise; Thy saints, O LORD, before Thy throne, their songs of honor raise. With joy Thy people stand on Zion's chosen hill, proclaim the wonders of Thy hand, and councils of Thy will. 4 How decent and how wise! How glorious to behold! Beyond the pomp that charms the eyes, and rites adorned with gold. The God we worship now will guide us till we die; will be our God while here below, and ours above the sky.

Great is the Lord our God

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #48 (1789) Lyrics: 1 Great is the Lord our God, And let his praise be great; He makes his churches his abode, His most delightful seat. 2 Those temples of his grace, How beautiful they stand? The honours of our native place, And bulwarks of our land. 3 In Sion God is known A refuge in distress; How bright has his salvation shone, How fair his heav'nly grace? 4 When kings against her join'd, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind They fled with hasty fear. 5 When navies tall and proud Attempt to spoil our peace, He sends his tempest roaring loud, And sinks them in the seas. 6 Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where his own sheep have been. 7 In ev'ry new distress We’ll to his house repair, Recall to mind his wond'rous grace, And seek deliv'rance there. Part II. 8 Far as thy name is known, The world declares thy praise; Thy saints, O Lord, before thy throne, Their songs of honour raise. 9 With joy thy people stand On Sion’s chosen hill, Proclaim the wonders of thy hand, And councils of thy will. 10 Let strangers walk around The city where we dwell, Compass and view thy holy ground, And mark the building well. 11 The orders of thy house, The worship of thy court, The cheerful songs, the solemn vows, And make a fair report. 12 How decent and how wise! How glorious to behold! Beyond the pomp that charms the eyes, And rites adorn'd with gold. 13 The God we worship now Will guide us 'till we die; Will be our God while here below, And ours above the sky.
