FATHER, How Wide Thy Glory Shines!
How High Thy Wonders Rise!
Known Through The Earth By Thousand Signs
By Thousands Through The Skies.
Those Mighty Orbs Proclaim Thy Power,
Their Motions Speak Thy Skill;
And On The Wings Of Every Hour
We Read Thy Patience Still.
Part Of Thy Name Divinely Stands
On All Thy Creatures Writ;
They Show The Labour Of Thy Hands,
Or Impress Of Thy Feet.
But When We View Thy Strange Design
To Save Rebellious Worms,
Where Vengeance And Compassion Join
In Their Divinest Forms;
Here The Whole Deity Is Known,
Nor Dares A Creature Guess
Which Of The Glories Brightest Shone,
The Justice, Or The Grace.
Now The Full Glories Of The Lamb
Adorn The Heavenly Plains!
Bright Seraphs Learn Immanuel’s Name,
And Try Their Choicest Strains.
O May I Bear Some Humble Part
In That Immortal Song!
Wonder And Joy Shall Tune My Heart,
And Love Command My Tongue.
