28a. The God we worship now

1 The God we worship now,
Will guide us till we die,
Will be our God while here below,
And ours above the sky.

2 How decent and how wise!
How glorious to behold,
Beyond the pomp that charms the eye,
And rites adorned with gold.

3 Far as Thy name is known,
The world declares Thy praise;
Thy saints, O Lord, before Thy throne
Their songs of honor raise.
