118. C. M. Drennan.

"God is a Spirit."

1The heaven of heavens cannot contain

The universal Lord;

Yet he in humble hearts will deign

To dwell and be adored.

2Where'er ascends the sacrifice

Of fervent praise and prayer,

Or on the earth, or in the skies,

The God of heaven is there.

3His presence is diffused abroad

Through realms, through worlds unknown;

Who seek the mercies of our God

Are ever near his throne.
