Lyics

CROWN his head with endless blessing,
Who, in God the Father's name,
With compassions never ceasing,
Come, salvation to proclaim.


Hail, ye saints, who know his favor,
Who within his gates are found-
Hail ye saints, th' exalted Saviour;
Let his courts with praise abound.


Jesus, thee our Saviour hailing;
Thee our God in praise we own;
Highest honors, never failing,
Rise eternal round thy throne.


Now, ye saints, his power confessing
In your grateful strains adore;
For his mercy, never ceasing,
Flows and flows for evermore.
