1883. God of Eternity

1. God of eternity, Savior and king,
Help us to honor Thee, help while we sing;
Now may the clouds of night break into splendor bright,
Jesus, our life and light, our Lord and king!

2. God of eternity, Ancient of Days,
Glorious in majesty, author of praise;
Hear Thou our earnest call, while at Thy feet we fall,
Jesus, our all in all, our Lord and king!

3. God of eternity, ruler divine,
Strength of the mighty hills, all power is Thine;
Boundless Thy reign shall be, wondrous Thy victory,
Earth shall be filled with Thee, our Lord and king!

4. God of eternity, love is Thy name,
God of the earth and sea, Thee we proclaim;
Love, through Thine only Son, Thy work of grace hath done;
O blessèd Three in One, our Lord and king!
