LyicsMY God, my King, thy varions praise
Shall fill the remnant of my days;
Thy grace employ my humble tongue,
Till death and glory raise the song.
The wings of every hour shall bear
Some thankful tribute to thine ear,
And every setting sun shall see
New works of duty, done for thee.
Let distant times and nations raise
The long succession of thy praise;
And unborn ages make my song
The joy and labor of my tongue.
But who can speak thy wondrous deeds?
Thy greatness all my thoughts exceeds:
Vast and unsearchable thy ways,
Vast and immortal is thy praise.
