What verse can reach the lofty theme? 2 Enthroned amid the radiant spheres, We glory like a garment wears; To form a robe of light divine, Ten thousand suns around Him shine. 3 In all our Maker’s grand designs, Almighty power with wisdom shines; His works, through all this wondrous frame, Declare the glories of His name. 4 Raised on devotion’s lofty wing, Do thou, my soul, His glories sing; And let His praise employ thy tongue, Till listening worlds shall join the song. Amen. Topics: God the Father Majesty and Power; God Eternity and Power; Nature; Peace Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY
