Lyics

Now let each happy guest,
The sacred concert raise,
To close the honors of the feast,
And sing the Master's praise.


His condescending love,
First calls our wonder forth;
He left the blessed realms above,
To dwell with men on earth.


His precepts, how divine,
How suited to our state!
How bright his acts of mercy shine,
His promises how great!


Redemption's glorious plan,
How wond'rous in our view!
The salutary source to man,
Of peace and pardon too.
