Tune Waley Waley.  Written in Dhoon Glen in Mann

 

The beauty of the Lord is like

A glade pierced by the summer sun

A thousand small perfections meet

And blend in him, the perfect One

 

The working of the Lord is like

A glen of rivulets flowing clear

Creating lovely harmony

And driving out all doubt and fear

 

The Mercy of the Lord is like

A mountain stream in springtime flood

That bursts all bounds, that must be free

And flows urged on by Jesu’s blood

 

How can we praise our mighty God

As he deserves so great is he

Our Maker and Redeemer, King

The Lord of all Eternity
