About this Hymn
Drawing from Isaiah 40:12–14, this modern hymn of adoration from Sovereign Grace Music celebrates God's character in the story of redemption, culminating in a truly compelling call to worship. True worship begins with seeing God as he is—glorious, holy, and worthy of all praise. The lyrics of this song remind us that no one can compare to God. Yet in love this same mighty God humbled himself, bearing our guilt on the cross.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Who has held the oceans in his hands? Who has numbered ev'ry grain of sand? Kings and nations tremble at his voice; all creation rises to rejoice!
Chorus
Behold our God, seated on his throne: come, let us adore him! Behold our King! Nothing can compare; come, let us adore him!
Verse 2
Who has given counsel to the Lord? Who can question any of his words? Who can teach the One who knows all things? Who can fathom all his wondrous deeds?
Verse 3
Who has felt the nails upon his hands, bearing all the guilt of sinful man? God eternal, humbled to the grave; Jesus, Savior, risen now to reign!
Bridge
You will reign forever, you will reign forever, you will reign forever, you will reign forever! Let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill!
Who has held the oceans in his hands? Who has numbered ev'ry grain of sand? Kings and nations tremble at his voice; all creation rises to rejoice!
Chorus
Behold our God, seated on his throne: come, let us adore him! Behold our King! Nothing can compare; come, let us adore him!
Verse 2

Verse 3
Who has felt the nails upon his hands, bearing all the guilt of sinful man? God eternal, humbled to the grave; Jesus, Savior, risen now to reign!
Bridge
You will reign forever, you will reign forever, you will reign forever, you will reign forever! Let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill the earth, let your glory fill!
