Great is our redeeming Lord

Verse 1

Great is our redeeming Lord, In, power, and truth, and grace; Him, by highest heaven adored, His Church on earth doth praise: In the city of our God, In His holy mount below, Publish, spread His name abroad, And all His greatness show.

Verse 2

For Thy loving kindness, Lord, We in Thy temple stay; Here Thy faithful love record, Thy saving power display: With Thy name Thy praise is known, Glorious Thy perfections shine; Earth’s remotest bounds shall own Thy works are all divine.

Verse 3

See the Gospel Church secure, And founded on a rock; All her promises are sure; Her bulwarks who can shock? Count! her every precious shrine; Tell, to after ages tell, Fortified by power divine, The church can never fail.

Verse 4

Zion’s God is all our own, Who on His love rely; We His pardoning love have known, And live to Christ and die: To the new Jerusalem He our faithful guide shall be; Him we claim, and rest in Him, Through all eternity.
