Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16103 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Thy greatness, Lord, what thought can reach Lyrics: 1 Thy greatness, Lord, what thought can reach,
What mortal tongue can tell?
Thy throne is fixed, Thy power extends,
O’er Heaven and earth and hell.
2 Who can evade or who resist,
The vengeance of a God?
Thy wrath vindictive, once provoked,
Spreads terror all abroad.
3 The wide dominion and the power,
The sovereignty is Thine;
‘Tis Thine the universe to rule,
With majesty divine.
4 To Thee, by all the hosts of Heaven,
By all the human race,
Be everlasting honors given,
And universal praise. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
Thy Greatness, Lord
