LyicsTHY kingdom, Lord, forever stands,
While earthly thrones decay;
And time submits to Thy commands,
While ages roll away.
Thy sov'reign bounty freely gives
Its unexhausted store;
And universal nature lives
On Thy sustaining pow'r.
Holy and just in all Thy ways,
Thy providence divine;
In all Thy works, immortal rays
Of pow'r and mercy shine.
The praise of God--delightful theme!
Shall fill my heart and tongue;
Let all creation bless His name
In one eternal song.
