LyicsGOD is in his holy temple:
All the earth keep silence here;
Worship him in truth and spirit,
Reverence him with godly fear.
Holy, Holy,
Lord of hosts, our Lord, appear.
God in Chris reveals his presence,
Throned upon the mercy-seat:
Saints, rejoice! And sinners, tremble!
Each prepare his God to meet;
Lowly, lowly,
Bow adoring at his feet.
Hail him here with songs of praises;
Him with prayers of faith surround;
Hearken to his glorious gospel,
While the preacher's lips expound:
Blessed, blessed,
They who know the joyful sound.
