Lyics

GLORY to God! our Saviour lies

In deeps concealed from human view:

Mortals behold him sink and rise--

A fit example sure for you:

The sacred record while you read,

Calls you to imitate the deed.



Behold th' Eternal Father speak

And shake creation with his word,

Through parting skies the accents break,

"My Son! the well-beloved--your Lord!"

O sinners hear this word to-day--

Hear it all nations and obey.
