Lyrics
-
1. Great is the Lord; 'tis good to praiseHis high and holy name.Well may the Saints in latter daysHis wondrous love proclaim.
-
2. The Comforter is sent again;His pow'r the Church attends,And with the faithful will remainTill Jesus Christ descends.
-
3. We'll praise him for a prophet's voice,His people's steps to guide;In this we do and will rejoice,Tho all the world deride.
-
4. To praise him let us all engage,For unto us is giv'nTo live in this momentous ageAnd share the light of heav'n.
