A perfect man in his own day,

God knew that he would obey.

He made a big boat,

Which soon was afloat

With kin, animals, and hay. (Gen 6.21)

Have you started for glory and heaven,

Have you left this old world far behind;

In your heart is the Comforter dwelling,

Can you say, :Praise the Lord, He is mine;”

Have the ones that once walked on the highway,

Gone back, and you seem all alone?

Keep your eyes on the prize, for the home in the skies.

God is still on the throne.

Chorus:

God is still on the throne,

And He will remember His own;

Though trials may press us and burdens distress us,

He never will leave us alone;

God is still on the throne,

He never forsaketh His own;

His promise is true,

He will not forget you,

God is still on the throne.
