Hymn 2 O WORSHIP THE KING Lyrics

1. O, worship the King,
All glorious above,
And grateful sing
His power and His love;
Our shield and Defender,
The Ancient of days,
Pavilioned in splendor
And girded with praise.

2. Oh, tell of His might,
Oh, sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light,
Whose canopy space,
His chariot of wrath
The deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is His path
On the wings of the storm.

3. The earth, with its store,
Of wonders untold,
Almighty! Thy power
Hath founded of old;
Hath ‘stablished it fast
By a changeless decree,
And round it hath cast,
Like a mantle, the sea.

4. Thy bountiful care
What tongue can recite?
It breaths in the air.
It shines in the light
It streams form the hills,
It descends to the plain,
And sweetly distils
In the dew and the rain.

5. Frail children of dust,
And feeble as frail
In Thee do we trust,
Nor find Thee to fail;
Thy mercies, how tender!
How firm to the end!
Our Maker, Defender,
Redeemer, and Friend.
