Text: | My God, How Wonderful Thou Art |
Author: | Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 |
Tune: | DUNDEE |
1 My God, how wonderful thou art,
Thy majesty how bright!
How beautiful thy mercy seat
In depths of burning light!
2 How wonderful, how beautiful
The sight of thee must be -
Thine endless wisdom, boundless pow'r,
And awesome purity!
3 No earthly father loves like thee;
No mother, e'er so mild,
Bears and forbears as thou hast done
With me, thy sinful child.
4 Yet, I may love thee too, O Lord,
Almighty as thou art,
For thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart.
5 My God, how wonderful thou art,
Thou everlasting friend!
On thee I stay my trusting heart
Till faith in vision end.
