Tune: | TRURO |
Composer: | Chas. Burney |
1 Thee we adore, eternal Lord!
We praise Thy name with one accord;
Thy saints, who here Thy goodness see,
Through all the world do worship Thee.
2 To Thee aloud all angels cry,
The heav'ns and all the pow'rs on high:
Thee, holy, holy, holy King,
Lord God of hosts, they ever sing.
3 Th'apostles join the glorious throng;
The prophets swell th'immortal song;
The martyrs' noble army raise
Eternal anthems to Thy praise.
4 From day to day, O Lord, do we
Highly exalt and honor Thee!
Thy name we worship and adore,
World without end, for evermore!
5 Vouchsafe, O Lord, we humbly pray,
To keep us safe from sin this day;
Have mercy, Lord, we trust in Thee;
O let us ne'er confounded be!
Amen.
