My God, How Wonderful Thou Art
My God, how won-der-ful Thou art,
Thy maj-es-ty how bright!
How beau-ti-ful Thy mer-cy seat,
In depths of burn-ing light!
Won-drous are Thine e-ter-nal years,
O ev-er-last-ing Lord,
By ho-ly an-gels day and night
Un-ceas-ing-ly a-dored!
O how I fear Thee, liv-ing God,
With deep-est, tenderest fears,
And wor-ship Thee with trem-bling hope,
And pen-i-ten-tial tears.
Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord,
Al-might-y as Thou art;
For Thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart.
No earth-ly fa-ther loves like Thee,
No moth-er half so mild
Bears and for-bears, as Thou hast done
With me, Thy sin-ful child.
How won-der-ful, how beau-ti-ful,
The sight of Thee will be,
Thine end-less wis-dom, bound-less power,
And awe-some pur-i-ty!
