Lyrics

Verse 1

O worship the King, all glorious above,

and greatfully sing His wonderful love;

our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,

Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.

Verse 2

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,

and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.

Verse 3

Frail children of dust, and feeble as 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!
