Perfections of God Combined in his Government
Isaac Watts • English
Primary Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:11-12
Verse 1
Jehovah reigns! His throne is high, His robes are light and majesty; His glory shines with beams so bright, No mortal can sustain the sight.
Verse 2
His terrors keep the world in awe; His justice guards His holy law; His love reveals a smiling face; His truth and promise seal the grace.
Verse 3
Thro' all His works His wisdom shines, And baffles Satan's deep designs; His pow'r is sov'reign to fulfill The noblest counsels of His will.
Verse 4
And will this glorious Lord descend To be my Father and my Friend? Then let my songs with angels join; Heav'n is secure, if God be mine.
