ALMIGHTY GOD

Just a word from His Heavenly tongue
Echoing through the vastness of space
When the breath of Almighty God hung
The multitude of stars in their place

One word from Him and it was done
He built the mountain high and spread the ocean
The moon to rule night and the daytime sun
The spinning of earth He set in motion

The word of His lips give birth
To birds that wing upon the air
In the mountains and vales of Earth
And in the seas He created all life there

He stooped and formed man from the dust
And breathed in his nostrils living breath
I am the Lord; o’ man; holy and just
Disobey my word and you will taste of death

What foolishness then sinful man
That the path of sin you have trod
And Jesus crucified in Salvation plan
To reconcile you to Almighty God

Fear Him; He has all power
The breath of your life is in His hand
You know not your dying hour
When for your soul He will demand

He walks in the vastness of space
From eternity to eternity He reigns from above
Then measure to me His saving grace
And the depth; height and width of His love

Tell me again how He raised from the grave
When death; the penalty for sin was done
And hope and life and saving grace
Is found in His resurrected Son

What a song of redemption and praise
That will flow from deep in the heart
When the redeemed their voices will raise
To sing to Almighty God; How Great Thou Art
