HYMN Lyrics Text: O Worship The King, All Glorious Above

HYMN Lyrics Text: Humbly We Adore Thee

1. O worship the King,

All glorious above.

O gratefully sing

His power and His love,

Our shield and defender,

The ancient of days,

Pavilloned in splendour,

and girded with praise.

2. O tell of His might!

O sing of His grace

Whose robe is the light

Whose canopy space.

His chariots of wrath

the deep thunder-clouds form.

And dark is his path

on the wings of the storm.

3. This earth, with its store

of wonders untold.

Almighty thy power

hath founded of old.

Hath ‘stablished it fast

by a changeless decree

And round it hath cast,

like a mantle, the sea.

4. Thy bountiful care

what tongue can recite?

It breathes in the air.

It shines in the light.

It streams from the hills.

It descends to the plain.

It sweetly distills in

the dew and the rain.

5. Frail children of dust,

and feeble and frail.

In thee do we trust,

nor find thee to fail.

Thy mercies, how tender!

How firm to the end!

Our Maker, Defender,

Redeemer and Friend.
