Be Thou, O God, Exalted High

Be thou

O God ex­alt­ed high;

And as Thy glo­ry fills the sky

So let it be on earth dis­played

Till Thou art here

as there

ob­eyed.

O God

my heart is fixed; ’tis bent

Its thank­ful trib­ute to pre­sent;

And

with my heart

my voice I’ll raise

To Thee

my God

in songs of praise.

Thy prais­es

Lord

I will re­sound

To all the list­en­ing na­tions round;

Thy mer­cy high­est Heav’n trans­cends;

Thy truth be­yond the clouds ex­tends.
