Trembling Before Thine Awful Throne

Author: Augustus L. Hillhouse Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6511 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Trembling before Thine awful throne, O Lord, in dust my sins I own; Justice and mercy for my life Contend; O smile, and heal the strife. 2. The Savior smiles; upon my soul New tides of hope tumultuous roll; His voice proclaims my pardon found, Seraphic transport wings the sound. 3. Earth has a joy unknown to Heaven, The newborn peace of sins forgiven; Tears of such pure and deep delight, Ye angels, never dimmed your sight. 4. Ye saw, of old, on chaos rise The beauteous pillars of the skies; Ye know where Morn exulting springs, And Evening folds her drooping wings. 5. Bright heralds of the eternal will, Abroad His errands ye fulfill; Or, throned in floods of beamy day, Symphonious in His presence play. 6. Loud is the song, the heavenly plain Is shaken with the choral strain; And dying echoes, floating far, Draw music from each chiming star. 7. But I amid your choirs shall shine, And all your knowledge shall be mine: Ye on your harps must lean to hear A secret chord that mine will bear. Languages: English Tune Title: SAMSON
