Hymn 895
Great is the Lord our God
Meter: S.M.
1
Great is the Lord our God,
And let his praise be great;
He makes his churches his abode,
His most delightful seat.
2
These temples of his grace,
How beautiful they stand!
The honours of our native place,
And bulwarks of our land.
3
In Zion God is known
A refuge in distress;
How bright has his salvation shone
Through all her palaces!
4
In every new distress
We'll to his house repair;
We'll think upon his wondrous grace,
And seek deliverance there.
