Great God! To What Glorious Height

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9629 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Great God, to what glorious height Lyrics: 1 Great God, to what glorious height Hast Thou advanced the Lord Thy Son! Angels, in all their robes of light, Are made the servants of His throne. 2 Before His feet their armies wait, And swift as flames of fire they move To manage His affairs of state, In works of vengeance or of love. 3 His orders run through all their hosts, Legions descend at His command, To shield the British coasts, When foreign rage invades our land. 4 Now they are sent to guide our feet Up to the gates of Thine abode, Through all the dangers that we meet In traveling the heavenly road. 5 Lord, when I leave this mortal ground, And Thou shalt bid me rise and come, Send a belovèd angel down Safe to conduct my spirit home.
