LyicsINFINITE excellence is thine,
Thou lovely Prince of Grace!
Thy uncreated beauties shine
With never-fading rays.
Sinners from earth's remotest end
Come bending at thy feet;
To thee their prayers and praise ascend,
In thee their wishes meet.
Thy name, as precious ointment shed,
Delights the church around;
Sweetly the sacred odors spread
Through all Immanuel's ground.
Millions of happy spirits live
On thy exhaustless store;
From thee they all their bliss receive,
And still thou givest more.
Thou art the triumph and their joy;
They find their all in thee;
Thy glories will their tongues employ
Through all eternity.
