DENMARK
Treble:
Before Jehovah's awful throne,
Ye nations bow with sacred joy,
Know that the Lord is God alone!
He can create, and he destroy,
He can create and he destroy.
His sovreign pow'r without our aid,
Made us of clay and form'd us men;
And when like wandr'ing sheep we stray'd,
He bro't us to his fold again,
He bro't us to his fold again.
We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs.
High as the heav'ns our voices raise.
And earth, and earth with her ten thousand thousand tongues,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.
Appears in brother John Henry's book of Psalms

DENMARK
By Dr. Isaac Watts (1674-1748)
Before Jehovah's awful throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone;
He can create, and He destroy.
His sovereign power, without our aid,
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when like wandering sheep we strayed,
He brought us to His fold again.
We are His people, we His care,
Our souls, and all our mortal frame;
What lasting honours shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy Name.
We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs,
High as the heavens our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise
Wide as the world is Thy command,
Vast as eternity Thy love;
Firm as a rock Thy truth must stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move.
