Lyics

THE Lord, the sovereign King

Has fixed his throne on high,

O'er all the heavenly world he rules,

And all beneath the sky.



Ye angels great in might

And swift to do his will,

Bless ye the Lord, whose voice you hear,

Whose pleasure ye fulfil.



Ye heavenly host who wait

The orders of your King,

Who guards his churches when they pray,

Oh join the praise we sing.
