Lyics

You servants of God,

Your Master proclaim,

And publish abroad

His wonderful name:

The name all victorious

Of Jesus extol:

His kingdom is glorious,

And rules over all.



Christ ruleth on high,

Almighty to save:

And still he is nigh--

His presence we have:

The great congregation

His triumph shall sing,

Ascribing salvation

To Jesus our King.



Salvation to him,

Who sits on the throne--

Let all cry aloud,

And honor the Son:

Our Saviour's praises

The angels proclaim,

They fall on their faces

And worship the Lamb.



Him let us adore,

And give him his right;

All glory and power

And wisdom and might:

All honor and blessing

With angels above,

And thanks never ceasing

For infinite love.
