The Eternity of God - Isaac Watts

Lord, raise my soul above the ground, And draw my thoughts to thee; Teach me, with sweet and solemn sound, To praise the eternal Three. Long ere the lofty skies were spread, Jehovah filled his throne; Or Adam formed, or angels made, The Maker lived alone. His boundless years can ne’er decrease, But still maintain their prime; Eternity’s his dwelling-place, And ever is his time. While like a tide our minutes flow, The present and the past, He fills his own immortal NOW, And sees our ages waste. The sea and sky must perish too, And vast destruction come! The creatures! look how old they grow, And wait their fiery doom. Well; let the sea shrink all away, And flame melt down the skies, My God shall live an endless day When the old creation dies.
