Verse 1
Great is the Lord our God,
And let His praise be great;
He makes His churches His abode,
His most delightful seat.

Verse 2
These temples of His grace,
How beautiful they stand!
The honours of our native place,
And bulwarks of our land.

Verse 3
In Zion God is known,
A refuge in distress;
How bright has His salvation shone
Through all her palaces!

Verse 4
In every new distress
We'll to His house repair;
We'll think upon His wondrous grace,
And seek deliverance there.
