Lyics

Now be my heart inspired to sing

The glories of my Saviour King;

He comes with blessings from above,

And wins the nations to his love.



Thy throne, O Lord, forever stands;

Grace is the scepter in thy hands;

Thy laws and works are just and right,

But truth and mercy thy delight.



Let endless honors crown thy head;

Let every age thy praises spread;

Let all the nations know thy word,

And every tongue confess thee Lord.
