The heaven of heavens cannot contain
|
The heaven of heavens cannot contain The universal Lord; Yet he in humble hearts will deign To dwell and be adored. Where'er ascends the sacrifice Of fervent praise and prayer, Or in the earth or in the skies, The heaven of God is there. His presence there is spread abroad Through realms, through worlds unknown; Who seeks the mercies of his God Is ever near his throne. |
Totius mundi Rex nequit a caelo comprimi, submissa corda sed sinit colentem se coli. Ex corde sacrificia, laudes cum precibus, qua surgant,infra seu supra, Divina ibi est domus. Praeter scientiam dedit praesentem se Deus; cuius qui veniam petit est ei proximus. |
