Lyics

EXALT the Lord our God,

And worship at his feet;

His nature is all holiness,

And mercy is his seat.



When Israel was his church,

When Aaron was his priest,

When Moses cried--when Samuel prayed,

He gave his people rest.



Oft he forgave their sins,

Nor would destroy their race;

And oft he made his vengeance known,

When they abused his grace.



Exalt the Lord our God,

Whose grace is still the same;

Still he's a God of holiness,

And jealous for his name.
