LyicsWe bless the Prophet of the Lord,
That comes with truth and grace;
Jesus, thy Spirit and thy Word
Shall lead us in thy ways.
We rev'rence our High Priest above,
Who offer'd up his blood,
And lives to carry on his love
By pleading with our God.
We honor our exalted King;
How sweet are his commands!
He guards our souls from hell and sin
By his almighty hands.
