Lyics

WE bless the Prophet of the Lord,

That comes with truth and grace;

Jesus, thy Spirit and thy Word

Shall lead us in thy ways.



We rev'rence our High Priest above,

Who offer'd up his blood,

And lives to carry on his love

By pleading with our God.



We honor our exalted King;

How sweet are his commands!

He guards our souls from hell and sin

By his almighty hands.
