Lyics

Exalted Prince of Life, we own

The royal honors of thy throne;

'T is fix'd by God's almighty hand,

And seraph's bow at thy command.



Exalted Saviour, we confess

The mighty triumphs of thy graces;

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!
