God Himself is Present

1. God Him- self is pre- sent: Let us now a- dore Him, And with awe ap- pear be- fore Him. God is in His tem- ple, all with- in keep si- lence, Pro- strate lie with deep- est rev- erence. Him a- lone God we own, Him our God and Sa- vior; Praise His name for- ev- er.

2. God Him- self is pre- sent: Hear the harps re- sound- ing! See the crowds the throne sur- round- ing! "Ho- ly, ho- ly, ho- ly", hear the hymn as- cend- ing, An- gels, saints, their voi- ces blend- ing! Bow Thine ear to us here: Hear, O Christ, the prai- ses That Thy Church now rai- ses.

3. O Thou fount of bless- ing, Pur- i- fy my spi- rit; Trust- ing on- ly in Thy mer- it, Like the ho- ly an- gels Who be- hold Thy glo- ry, May I cease- less- ly a- dore Thee, Let Thy will Ev- er still Rule Thy Church ter- res- trial, As the hosts ce- les- tial.
