Beneath the sacred throne of God

Author: John Kent Hymnal: The Sacred Harp #569b (1991) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the sacred throne of God I saw a river rise; The streams where peace and pard’ning blood Descended from the skies. 2 I stood amazed and wondered when Or why this ocean rose; That wafts salvation down to man, His traitors and His foes. 3 That sacred flood from Jesus’ veins Was free to make away; And Mary’s or Manasseh’s stains, Or sins more vile than they Languages: English Tune Title: SACRED THRONE

Beneath the sacred throne of God

Author: Kent Hymnal: Hymn and Tune Book for Use in Old School or Primitive Baptist Churches #172 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Beneath the sacred throne of God I saw a river rise; The streams were peace and pardoning blood Descending from the skies. 2 Angelic minds cannot explore This deep, unfathomed sea; 'Tis void of bottom, brim, or shore, And lost in Deity. 3 I stood amazed, and wondered when, Or why this ocean rose, That wafts salvation down to men, His traitors and his foes. 4 That sacred flood, from Jesus’ veins, Was free to take away A Mary’s or Manasseh’s stains, Or sins more vile than they. 5 Free to the sinner, dead to God, Who sought the road to hell; That trampled on a Saviour's blood, And on his buckler fell. 6 Triumphant grace, and man's free will, Shall not divide the throne; For man's a fallen sinner still, And Christ shall reign alone.
