[Verse 1]
D A7 D G D A
Before Je-ho-vah's aw-ful throne,
D G Em D A
Ye nations, bow with sa-cred joy;
D A7 D G D A
Know that the Lord is God a-lone;
D G A7 D Em D A7 D
He can cre-ate, and He de-stroy.
[Verse 2]
D A7 D G D A
His sov-ereign power, with-out our aid,
D G D Em D A
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
D A7 D G D A
And whe like wandering sheep we strayed,
D G A7 D Em D A7 D
He brought us to His fold a - gain.
[Verse 3]
D A7 D G D A
We'll crowd His gates with thank-ful songs,
D G D Em D A
High as the heavens our voic-es raise;
D A7 D G D A
And earth, with her ten thou-sand tongues,
D G A7 D Em D A7 D
Shall fill His courts with sound-ing praise.
[Verse 4]
D A7 D G D A
Wide as the world is His command,
D G D Em D A
Vast as E-ter-ni-ty His love;
D A7 D G D A
Firm as a rock His truth shall stand,
D G A7 D Em D A7 D
When roll-ing years shall cease to move.
