E1:My God, how won_der_ful Thy are,/Thy ma_jes_ty how bright,/How beau_ti_ful Thy mer_cy seat,/in depths of burn_ing light!
E2:How dread are Thine e_ter_nal years,/O e_ver_last_ing LORD;/by pros_trate spi_rits, day and night,/in_cess_ant_ly a_dored.
E3:How beau_ti_ful, how beau_ti_ful,/the sight of Thee must be,/Thine end_less wis_dom, bound_less pow'r,/and aw_ful pu_ri_ty.
E4:O how I fear Thee, Li_ving God,/with deep_est, tend'_rest fears,/and wor_ship Thee with trem_bling hope,/and pe_ni_ten_tial tears.
E5:Yet I may love Thee too, O LORD,/Al_migh_ty as Thou art;/for Thou hast stooped to ask of me/the love of my poor heart.
E6:Oh then this worse than worth_less heart/In pi_ty deign to take,/And make it love Thee, for Thy_self/And for Thy glo_ry’s sake.
E7:No earth_ly fa_ther loves like Thee,/no mo_ther e’er so mild,/bears and for_bears, as Thou hast done/with me, Thy sin_ful child.
E8:On_ly to sit and think of God/O what a joy it is!/To think the thought, to breathe the Name/Earth has no high_er bliss!.
E9:Fa_ther of Je_sus, love's re_ward,/what rap_ture will it be,/pros_trate be_fore Thy throne to lie,/and e_ver gaze on Thee!/
