O Thou to Whom Archangels Raise

Author: Unknown Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. O Thou to whom archangels raise A ceaseless song of perfect praise, Yet tremble as they sing; To us incline Thy gracious ear, And while, with reverence, we draw near, Accept the praise we bring. 2. In vain with all the angel choir, The ransomed hosts of Heav’n aspire Thy glory to proclaim; How then shall we approach Thy throne? How make Thy countless mercies known, Or sing Thine awful name? 3. Thy love alone our stay hath been, In every dark and changing scene Throughout the circling year; Preserved by Thine almighty hand, Again before Thy face we stand, And sing Thy goodness here. 4. Father, for Jesus’ sake receive The praise which now we gladly give, Though with a stammering tongue; Grant us at length to see Thy face, And join with all the ransomed race In Heav’n’s eternal song.

Now let me find my pardoning Lord, Let what I ask be given; The bar of unbelief remove, Open the door of faith and love, And take me into heaven.

O blest Physician, Thou hast still A cure for every mortal ill, A balm for every pain. 4 Our lives we consecrate to Thee, Thou spotless Lamb of Calvary, Let us be wholly Thine. Cleansed, pardoned, ransomed, healed by Thee, O grant us grace eternally To praise Thy love divine. Amen.

Whate'er Thou dost, whate'er Thou art, Thy people still in Thee have part; Still, still Thou art our own. 2 Ancient of Days! we dwell in Thee; Out of Thine own eternity Our peace and joy are wrought We rest in our eternal God, And make secure and sweet abode With Thee, who changest not. 3 Each steadfast promise we possess; Thine everlasting truth we bless, Thine everlasting love, The unfailing Helper close we clasp, The everlasting Arms we grasp, Nor from the Refuge move. 4 Spirit who makest all things new, Thou leadest onward; we pursue The heavenly march sublime, 'Neath Thy renewing fire we glow, And still from strength to strength we go, From height to height we climb. 5 Darkness and dread we leave behind, New light, new glory still we find, New realms divine possess; New births of grace new raptures bring; Triumphant, the new song we sing, The great Renewer bless. 6 To Thee we rise, in Thee we rest; We stay at home, we go in quest, Still Thou art our abode The rapture swells, the wonder grows As full on us new life still flows From our unchanging God.
