Be Thou, O God, Exalted High

Be thou, O God exalted high;

And as Thy glory fills the sky,

So let it be on earth displayed,

Till Thou art here, as there, obeyed.

O God, my heart is fixed; 'tis bent

Its thankful tribute to present;

And, with my heart, my voice I'll raise

To Thee, my God, in songs of praise.

Thy praises, Lord, I will resound

To all the listening nations round;

Thy mercy highest heav'n transcends;

Thy truth beyond the clouds extends.
