Thy greatness, Lord, what thought can reach,
What mortal tongue can tell?
Thy throne is fixed, thy power exalts,
O’er heaven and earth and hell.
Who can evade or who resist,
The vengeance of a God?
Thy wrath vindictive, once provoked,
Spreads terror all abroad.
The wide dominion and the power,
The sovereignty is thine;
‘Tis thine the universe to rule,
With majesty divine.
To thee, by all the hosts of heaven,
And all of human race,
Be everlasting honours given,
And universal praise.
