Infinite leagues beyond the sky

Isaac Watts • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 90:1-2

Verse 1

Infinite leagues beyond the sky, The great Eternal reigns alone, Where neither wings nor souls can fly, Nor angels climb the topless throne.

Verse 2

The Lord of glory builds his seat Of gems insufferably bright, And lays beneath his sacred feet Substantial beams of gloomy night.

Verse 3

Yet, glorious Lord, thy gracious eyes Look through and cheer us from above; Beyond our praise thy grandeur flies; Yet we adore, and yet we love.
