RCCG Hymn 42
Before Jehovah's Awful Throne
"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord all ye lands." - Ps. 100:1
Before Jehovah's awful throne, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone; He can create, and He destroy.
His sovereign power, without our aid, Made us of clay, and formed us men; And, when like wandering sheep we strayed, He brought us to His fold again.
We are His people, we His care, Our souls and all our mortal fame: What lasting honours shall we rear, Almighty Maker, to Thy Name?
We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs, High as the heavens our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
Wide as the world is Thy command, Vast as eternity Thy love; Firm as a rock Thy truth shall stand, When rolling years shall cease to move.
From The Redeemed Hymnal (4th edition) of The Redeemed Christian Church of God.
