How Are Thy Glories Here Displayed!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8947 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How are Thy glories here displayed! Great God, how bright they shine, While at Thy word we break the bread, And pour the flowing wine. 2 Here Thy revenging justice stands, And pleads its dreadful cause; Here saving mercy spreads her hands Like Jesus on the cross. 3 Thy saints attend with every grace On this great sacrifice; And love appears with cheerful face, And faith with fixèd eyes. 4 Our hope in waiting posture sits, To Heav’n directs her sight; Here every warmer passion meets, And warmer powers unite. 5 Zeal and revenge perform their part, And rising sin destroy; Repentance comes with aching heart, Yet not forbids the joy. 6 Dear Savior, change our faith to sight; Let sin for ever die; Then shall our souls be all delight, And every tear be dry.
