The Perfect World, by Adam Trod

Author: Nathaniel P. Willis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5583 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The perfect world, by Adam trod, Was the first temple built by God; His fiat laid the corner stone, And heaved its pillars one by one. 2. He hung its starry roof on high, The broad expanse of azure sky; He spread its pavement, green and bright, And curtained it with morning light. 3. The mountains in their places stood, The sea, the sky; and all was good; And when its first pure praises rang, The morning stars together rang. 4. Lord, ’tis not ours to make the sea, And earth, and sky, a house for Thee; But in Thy sight our offering stands, A humbler temple, made with hands. Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

The perfect world by Adam trod

Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1133 (1886) Lyrics: 1 The perfect world by Adam trod Was the first temple built by God; His fiat laid the corner-stone, And raised its pillars one by one. 2 He hung its starry roof on high The broad expanse of azure sky; He spread its pavement, green and bright, And curtained it with morning light. 3 The mountains in their places stood, The sea, the sky, and all "was good." And when its first pure praises rang, The "morning stars together sang." 4 Lord, 'tis not ours to make the sea And earth and sky a house for thee; But in thy sight our offering stands, An humbler temple, "made with hands."
