Jesus Is God!

Jesus is God! The sol­id earth

The ocean broad and bright

The count­less stars like gold­en dust

That strew the sky at night

The wheel­ing storm

the dread­ful fire

The plea­sant whole­some air

The sum­mer’s sun

the win­ter’s frost

His own cre­ation were.

Jesus is God! The glo­ri­ous bands

Of gold­en an­gels sing

Songs of ad­or­ing praise to Him

Their mak­er and their king.

He was true God in Beth­le­hem’s crib

On Cal­va­ry’s cross true God

He who in Heav’n eter­nal reigned

In time on earth ab­ode.

Jesus is God! Let sor­row come

And pain

and ev­ery ill

All are worth­while

for all are means

His glo­ry to ful­fill;

Worthwhile a thou­sand years of woe

To speak one lit­tle word

If by that I be­lieve we own

The God­head of our Lord.

Jesus is God! O! could I now

But com­pass earth and sea

To teach and tell the sin­gle truth

How hap­py should I be!

O! had I but an an­gel’s voice

I would pro­claim so loud

Jesus

the good

the beau­ti­ful

Is ev­er­last­ing God.
