The Divine Perfections. <br /> <br />Jehovah reigns, his throne is high, <br />His robes are light and majesty; <br />His glory shines with beams so bright, <br />No mortal can sustain the sight. <br /> <br />His terrors keep the world in awe; <br />His justice guards his holy law; <br />His love reveals a smiling face; <br />His truth and promise seal the grace. <br /> <br />Through all his works his wisdom shines, <br />And baffles Satan's deep designs; <br />His power is sovereign to fulfil <br />The noblest counsels of his will. <br /> <br />And will this glorious Lord descend <br />To be my Father and my Friend? <br />Then let my songs with angels join; <br />Heav'n is secure, if God be mine.<br /><br />Isaac Watts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hymn-168/
