EN 3873 Terrible God, That Reign’st on High

Luke.12.5

Versi Version 1

1

Terrible God, that reign’st on high,

How awful is Thy thund’ring hand!

Thy fiery bolts, how fierce they fly!

Nor can all earth or hell withstand.

2

This the old rebel angels knew,

And Satan fell beneath Thy frown;

Thine arrows struck the traitor through,

And weighty vengeance sunk him down.

3

This Sodom felt, and feels it still,

And roars beneath th’eternal load:

“With endless burnings who can dwell?

Or bear the fury of a God?”

4

Tremble ye sinners, and submit,

Throw down your arms before His throne;

Bend your heads low beneath His feet,

Or His strong hand shall crush you down.

5

And ye, bless’d saints, that love Him too,

With rev’rence bow before His Name;

Thus all His heav’nly servants do:

God is a bright and burning flame.
