Tune: LEONI
The God of Abraham praise
Who reigns enthroned above
Ancient of everlasting days
And God of love
Jehovah, great I AM!
By earth and heaven confessed
I bow and bless the sacred name
For ever blessed
The God of Abraham praise
At whose supreme command
From earth I rise and seek the joys
At His right hand
I all on earth forsake
Its wisdom, fame, and power
And Him my only portion make
My shield and tower
He by Himself hath sworn
I on His oath depend
I shall, on eagle’s wings upborne
To heaven ascend
I shall behold His face
I shall His power adore
And sing the wonders of His grace
For evermore
The God who reigns on high
The great archangels sing
And ‘Holy, holy, holy!’ cry
Almighty King!
Who wast and art the same
And evermore shall be
Jehovah, Father, Great I AM!
We worship Thee!
The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high
“Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!”
They ever cry
Hail, Abraham’s God and mine!
I join the heavenly lays
All might and majesty are Thine
And endless praise!
