Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Before the Lord’s eternal throne 
Before the Lord's eternal throne, all nations, bow with holy joy; know that the Lord is God alone, he can create and can destroy. 
His sovereign power, without our aid, formed us and fashioned us of old; and when like wandering sheep we strayed, he brought us back into his fold. 
We'll crowd your gates with thankful songs, high as the heavens our voices raise; and earth, with her ten thousand tongues, shall fill your courts with joyful praise. 
Wide as the world is your command, vast as eternity your love; firm as a rock your truth shall stand when rolling years have ceased to move. 
(1674-1748)
