This song talks of the faithfulness, love and greatness of God. He is the only One worthy of our praise, "from dawn to setting sun." His love is "better than life, much purer than gold refined," and remains unchanging despite our failures. In times of trouble, no adversary or adversity we face can bar His hand from intervening to rescue us to His arms. Those are the ideas brought out in the three Verses. The Chorus brings Him high praise, speaking of His power, exalting His Name, and expressing the famous prayer of Jesus that His Kingdom come to earth, and His will be done in our hearts (Matthew 6:10). This is the timeless song that the nations ever roar. Throughout history, empires have risen and fallen, but our God remains on His seat of power; He cannot be dethroned! He is indeed magnificent! That is the climax on which the Bridge ends this deep revelation of Who God is.
