Great Is the Lord, His Works of Might

lyricist: Isaac Watts, 1719
Composer: James Wade, 1865

Great is the Lord; His works of might

Demand our nob­lest songs;

Let His as­sem­bled saints unite

Their har­mo­ny of tongues.

Great is the mer­cy of the Lord;

He gives His child­ren food;

And

ev­er mind­ful of His Word

He makes His pro­mise good.

His Son

the great Re­deem­er

came

To seal His co­ve­nant sure;

Holy and re­ve­rend is His name

His ways are just and pure.

They that would grow di­vine­ly wise

Must with His fear be­gin;

Our fair­est proof of know­ledge lies

In hat­ing ev­ery sin.
