Author: C. T. Winchester, 1847 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #173 (1917) Lyrics: 1 The Lord our God alone is strong;
His hands build not for one brief day;
His wondrous works, through ages long,
His wisdom and His power display.
2 His mountains lift their solemn forms,
To watch in silence 'er the land;
The rolling oceans, rocked with storms,
Sleep in the hollow of His hand.
3 Beyond the heavens He sits alone,
The universe obeys His nod;
The lightning-rifts disclose His throne,
And thunders voice the name of God.
4 Thou sovereign God, receive this gift
Thy willing servants offer Thee;
Accept the prayers that thousands lift,
And let these halls Thy temple be.
5 And let those learn, who here shall meet,
True wisdom is with reverence crowned,
And Science walks with humble feet
To seek the God that Faith hath found. Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence; Dedication Of a Building Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELS' SONG
