LyicsA HOST of spirits round the throne
In humble posture stand,
On ev'ry head a starry crown,
A palm in ev'ry hand.
From diff'rent regions of the globe
These happy spirits came;
In Jesus' blood they wash'd their robes,
And triumph'd in his name.
One glorious body now they make,--
More glorious far their head;
Their souls to rapt'rous joys awake;
Their sorrows all are fled.
Without a jarring note, they join
In ceaseless songs of praise,
And to the sacred Three in One
Loud hallelujahs raise.
