The God of Abraham praise

Author: Thomas Olivers Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #284a (1917) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise Who reigns enthroned above, Ancient of everlasting days, And God of love; To Him uplift your voice, At Whose supreme command From earth we rise, and seek the joys At his right hand. 2 Though nature's strength decay, And earth and hell withstand, To Canaan's bounds I urge my way At His command. The watery deep we pass With Jesus in our view; And through the howling wilderness Our way pursue. 3 The goodly land we see, With peace and plenty blest: A land of sacred liberty And endless rest; There milk and honey flow, And oil and wine abound, And trees of life for ever grow With mercy crowned. 4 There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness, Triumphant o'er the world and sin, The Prince of Peace; On Zion's sacred height His kingdom He maintains, And glorious with His saints in light For ever reigns. 5 Before the great Three-One They all exulting stand, And tell the wonders He hath done Through all their land: The listening spheres attend And swell the growing fame, And sing, in songs which never end, The wondrous Name. 6 The God who reigns on high The great archangels sing, And "Holy, Holy, Holy," cry, "Almighty King! Who was, and is, the same, And evermore shall be: Eternal Father, great I AM, We worship Thee." 7 Before the Saviour’s face The ransomed nations bow, O’erwhelmed at His almighty grace, Forever new: He shows His prints of love,-- They kindle to a flame, And sound through all the worlds above "Worthy the Lamb." 8 The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high; "Hail! Father, Son, and Holy Ghost." They ever cry; Hail! Abraham’s God, and mine! (I join the heavenly lays), All might and majesty are Thine, And endless praise. Amen.
