O Worship the King (Grace Community Church)

Congregational singing
Grace Community Church - Sun Valley, California
Tune: LYONS

O worship the King, all glorious above,
And gratefully sing His wonderful love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.

O tell of His might, O sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space!
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.

Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.

Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail:
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end;
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.

I grew up in a small town, but we were "high church" Methodist. I feel so blessed to have learned to appreciate the beautiful sentiment and lovely words of such wonderful hymns!

His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.

Thank you so much for recording and posting these hymns with solid congregational singing, wonderful accompaniments, and the lyrics visible. Such a gift to all of us at this time when our congregations cannot gather to sing the hymns of faith.

Can’t believe you still use an organ when the other beautiful instruments can make the songs so much more reveling. Love the hymns though. Just wish more would make them inspiring to our younger generations.
