Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #17 (1995) Meter: 10.10.11.11 First Line: O worship the King, all glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all glorious above,
and gratefully sing God's wonderful love,
our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.
2 How great is your might! How steadfast your grace!
Your robe is the light; your canopy, space;
your chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
in majesty riding the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, your power has founded of old,
established it fast by a changeless decree,
and round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Your bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
in you do we trust, nor find you to fail;
your mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend! Topics: God Beyond All Name and Form Praise to God; God; God: Creator; God: Majesty; God: Names; Praise; Processional Hymns; Worship Scripture: Psalm 104 Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS
