26. Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme

1 Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme,
Awake, my voice, and sing
The mighty works or mightier name
Of our eternal King.

2 Tell of his wondrous faithfulness,
And sound his power abroad;
Sing the sweet promise of his grace,
The quickening word of God.

3 His every word of grace is strong
As that which built the skies;
The voice that rolls the stars along
Speaks all the promises.

4 Now shall my fainting heart rejoice
To know thy favour sure;
I trust the all-creating voice,
And faith desires no more.
