1 All-pow'rful, self-existent God,
Who all creation dost sustain!
Thou wast, and art, and art to come,
And everlasting is Thy reign,
And everlasting is Thy reign.
2 Fixed and eternal as Thy days,
Each glorious attribute divine
Through ages infinite shall still
With undiminish'd lustre shine,
With undiminish'd lustre shine.
Who all creation dost sustain!
Thou wast, and art, and art to come,
And everlasting is Thy reign,
And everlasting is Thy reign.
2 Fixed and eternal as Thy days,
Each glorious attribute divine
Through ages infinite shall still
With undiminish'd lustre shine,
With undiminish'd lustre shine.
3 Fountain of being! Source of good!
Immutable dost Thou remain;
Nor can the shadow of a change
Obscure the glories of Thy reign,
Obscure the glories of Thy reign.
4 Earth might with all her powers dissolve,
If such the great Creator's will;
But Thou for ever art the same -
And Yahweh Thy memorial still,
And Yahweh Thy memorial still.
Immutable dost Thou remain;
Nor can the shadow of a change
Obscure the glories of Thy reign,
Obscure the glories of Thy reign.
4 Earth might with all her powers dissolve,
If such the great Creator's will;
But Thou for ever art the same -
And Yahweh Thy memorial still,
And Yahweh Thy memorial still.
