1.
O God beyond all praising,
We worship you today
And sing the love amazing
That songs cannot repay;
For we can only wonder
At ev-’ry gift you send,
At blessings without number
And mercies without end:
We lift our hearts before you
And wait upon your word,
We honor and adore, you,
Our great and mighty Lord.
2.
The flow’r of earthly splendor
In time must surely die,
Its fragile bloom surrender
To you, the Lord most high;
But hidden from all nature
Th’e-eternal seed is sown,
Though small in mortal stature,
To heav-en’s garden grown:
For Christ the man from heaven
From death has set us free,
And we through him are given
The final victory.
Thank you!
