Mindful of His Majesty

"The Lord reigneth, He is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith He hath girded Himself: the world also is established, that it cannot be moved. Thy throne is established of old: Thou art from everlasting" (Psalm 93:1,2). "[John] preached saying, There cometh One mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose" (Mark 1:7).

Mindful of His majesty
We try to contemplate
The God of all eternity,
Magnificently great!

This world that He created,
Still established and unmoved
His power has demonstrated,
And His majesty has proved.

Yet we barely have begun,
As we've thought about creation.
The throne of God the Son
Exceeds imagination!

Before all matter, space, and time
Were created by His Word,
Clothed in majesty sublime,
Forever He endured.

As John was heard to testify,
(How correctly it was put!)
We are not worthy to untie
The sandal of His foot.
