94. Thee we adore, eternal Lord!

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,
Through all the world do worship Thee.

2 To Thee aloud all angels cry,
The heavens and all the powers on high,
Thee, holy, holy, holy King,
Lord God of hosts, they ever sing,
Lord God of hosts, they ever sing.

3 The apostles join the glorious throng;
The prophets swell th'immortal song;
The martyrs' noble army raise
Eternal anthems to Thy praise,
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,
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,
O, let us ne'er confounded be.

Amen.
