This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  O Lord, as we consider Thee,

    We worship Thee for all Thou art;

    Thou art so rich, so wonderful,

    So dear and precious to our heart.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.

 

 2  Thou art the very God in truth,

    The God who is both love and light;

    The God who is to us our life,

    The God in whom we, all delight.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.

 

 3  Thou also art a man indeed,

    A man so fine, so good, so pure;

    A man in whom our God delights,

    A man who can our love secure.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.

 

 4  Thou even art a lowly slave,

    A slave of God to serve for us;

    Obedient to the cross's death

    That we might be delivered thus.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.

 

 5  Thou art, beside all these, a King,

    A King in life and love to reign,

    By God anointed with His pow'r

    To rule with us in His domain.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.

 

 6  Dear Lord, as we remember Thee,

    We thus partake of all Thou art;

    As we enjoy Thyself in love,

    We share Thee as Thy counterpart.

 

What Thou art meets our every need!

Our hearts o'erflow with praise to Thee!

All our desires Thou dost exceed

And satisfy continually.
