Thou God of Glorious Majesty (EN 3497)

EN 3497 Thou God of Glorious Majesty

Mark.13.26

Versi Version 1

1

Thou God of glorious majesty,

To Thee, against myself, to Thee,

A worm of earth, I cry;

A half-awakened child of man;

An heir of endless bliss or pain;

A sinner born to die!

2

Lo! on a narrow neck of land,

’Twixt two unbounded seas I stand,

Secure, insensible;

A point of time, a moment’s space,

Removes me to that heavenly place,

Or shuts me up in hell.

3

O God, mine inmost soul convert!

And deeply on my thoughtful heart

Eternal things impress:

Give me to feel their solemn weight,

And tremble on the brink of fate,

And wake to righteousness.

4

Before me place, in dread array,

The pomp of that tremendous day,

When Thou with clouds shalt come,

To judge the nations at Thy bar;

And tell me, Lord, shall I be there

To meet a joyful doom?

5

Be this my one great business here,

With serious industry and fear

Eternal bliss to ensure;

Thine utmost counsel to fulfill,

And suffer all Thy righteous will,

And to the end endure.

6

Then, Savior, then my soul receive,

Transported from this vale to live

And reign with Thee above;

Where faith is sweetly lost in sight,

And hope in full supreme delight,

And everlasting love.
