When God proclaims his name,
by William Gadsby·1814·Meter 6.6.8.6 (SM)
Based on Exod 33:19
1
When God proclaims his name,
Then Zion hears with joy;
His grace, from age to age the same,
Shall all her needs supply.
2
When he descends to show
The wonders of his heart,
His presence lays proud nature low,
And guilty fears depart.
3
Rich mercy he proclaims
To sinners in distress;
And, by the most endearing names,
Reveals to them his grace.
