Lyics

EXALTED Prince of life, we own

The royal honors of Thy throne;

'Tis fix'd by God's almighty hand,

And seraphs bow at Thy command.



Exalted Saviour, we confess

The mighty triumphs of Thy grace;

Where beams of gentle radiance shine,

And temper majesty divine.



Wide Thy resistless scepter sway,

Till all Thine enemies obey;

Wide let Thy cross its virtues prove,

And conquer millions by its love!
