Highlight

Verse 1

Lo! God is here: let us adore,
And own how dreadful is this place;
Let all within us feel His power,
And humbly bow before His face.

Verse 2

Lo! God is here, whom day and night
United choirs of angels praise;
To Him, enthroned above all height,
The host of heaven their anthems raise.

Verse 3

Almighty Father, may our praise
Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill;
Still may we stand before Thy face,
Still hear and do Thy sovereign will.

Verse 4

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom earth and heaven adore,
From men and from the angel-host
Be praise and glory evermore.
