Lyics

EXALTED Prince of Life, we own

The royal honors of thy throne;

'Tis fixed by God's almighty hand,

And seraphs bow at thy command.



Exalted Saviour, we confess

The mighty triumphs of thy grace,

Where beams of gentle radiance shine,

And temper majesty divine.



Wide thy resistless scepter sway,

Till all thine enemies obey;

Wide let thy cross its virtues prove,

And conquer millions by its love.
