Psalms and Hymns to the Living God ‎#102

102. Thou, O Lord, Art God Alone

1 Thou, O LORD, art God alone,
everlasting is Thy throne;
thro' the ages men shall sing
praise to heav'n's eternal King.
You, enthroned above the skies,
wilt for Zion's help arise;
let Thy grace to her appear,
for the promised time is near.

2 If with love compassionate
we, Thy servants, mourn her state,
wilt not Thou, O gracious LORD,
help in Zion's need afford?
LORD, Thy glory shall appear,
kings and nations then shall fear;
and Thy name shall be adored
when Thy Zion is restored.

3 This all ages shall record
for the glory of the Lord;
Thou dost hear the humble prayer,
for the helpless Thou dost care.
Thou eternal art, and great,
heav'n and earth Thou didst create;
heav'n and earth shall pass away,
changeless Thou shalt live for aye.

4 As one lays a garment by,
Thou wilt change the starry sky
like a vesture worn and old;
but Thy years shall ne'er be told.
Thou wilt make Thy servants' race
ever live before Thy face,
and forever at Thy side
children's children shall abide.
