The God of Abraham praise
1. The God of Abraham praise, Who reigns enthroned above, Ancient of everlasting days, And God of Love. Jehovah great I Am! By earth and heaven confessed; I bow and bless the sacred Name For ever blessed. 2. The God of Abraham praise, At whose supreme command From earth I rise, and seek the joys At His right hand. I all on earth forsake, Its wisdom, fame and power; And Him my only portion make, My shield and tower. 3. He by Himself Hath sworn - I on His oath depend - I shall on eagles' wings upborne To heaven ascend; I shall behold His face, I shall His power adore, And sing the wonders of his grace For evermore 4. There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness, Triumphant o'er the world and sin, The Prince of Peace; On Zion's sacred height His kingdom still maintains, And glorious with His saints in light For ever reigns. 5. The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high: Hail, Father,Son, and Holy Ghost! They ever cry. Hail, Abraham's God and mine! I join the heavenly lays; All might and majesty are Thine, And endless praise. |
