Lyrics from "Eye on the Sparrow"

Thine is the Greatness
by J. Lamont Galbraith 1919

A rousing crowd-pleaser from the early 20th century.

Text: 1 Chronicles 29: 11, Ps.61: 3,4

Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: therefore, O Lord, we praise Thy name. Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all.

For thou has been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

I will abide in Thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of Thy wings.
