Before Messiah’s Awful throne Lyrics
Before Messiah’s Awful throne
Ye nations bow with Sacred joy
Know that the Lord is God alone
He can create and He destroy
He can create and He destroy.
His sovereign power without our aid
Made us of clay and form’d us men,
And when like wan’ring sheep we stray’d
He brought us to His fold again.
We’ll crowd thy gates with thankful songs
High as the heav’ns, our voices raise
And earth, and earth with her ten thousand thousand tongues.
Shall fill Thy courts, with sounding praise
Shall fill shall fill thy courts, with sounding praise.
Shall fill thy courts, with sounding praise.
Wide, wide as the world is Thy command
Vast as eternity, eternity thy love.
Firm as a rock, Thy truth shall stand
When rolling years, shall cease to move
Shall cease to move.
When rolling years shall cease to move,
When rolling years shall cease to move
When rolling years shall cease to move,
When rolling years shall cease to move.
