O Worship The King
Verse 1
O worship the King
All glorious above
And gratefully sing
His power and His love

Our Shield and Defender
The Ancient of Days
Pavilioned in splendor
And girded with praise
			
Verse 2
O tell of His might
And sing of His grace
Whose robe is the light
Whose canopy space

His chariots of wrath
The deep thunderclouds form
And dark is His path
On the wings of the storm
			
Verse 3
The earth with it's store
Of wonders untold
Almighty Thy power
Hath founded of old

Hath stablished it fast
By a changeless decree
And round it hath cast
Like a mantle the sea
			
Verse 4
Thy bountiful care
What tongue can recite
It breathes in the air
It shines in the light

It streams from the hills
It descends to the plain
And sweetly distills
In the dew and the rain
			
Verse 5
Frail children of dust
And feeble as frail
In Thee do we trust
Nor find Thee to fail

Thy mercies how tender
How firm to the end
Our Maker Defender
Redeemer and Friend
