The Plymouth Hymnal: For the Church, the Social Meeting, and the Home

Whom kings adored in songs sublime, And prophets praised with glowing tongue: A-MEN.

2 Not now on Zion's height alone,
Thy favored worshippers may dwell,
Nor where at sultry noon Thy Son
Sat weary, by the patriarch's well:

3 From every place below the skies,

The grateful song, the fervent prayer, The incense of the heart, may rise

To Heaven, and find acceptance there.

LYONS 10, 10, II, II

O worship the King, all- glo-rious a

Our Shield and Defender,the Ancient of days, Pavilioned in splendor, and gird-ed with praise. A - MEN.

3 With glory adorned, His people shall sing

To God, who defence and plenty supplies;
Their loud acclamations to Him, their great King,
Through earth shall be sounded, and reach to the skies.

a - bove, Thy word we

we call, Whose word is Truth, whose name is Love. A - MEN.

2 That Truth be with the heart believed

Of all who seek this sacred place,

With power proclaimed, in peace received, -
Our spirits' light, Thy Spirit's grace.

3 That Love its holy influence pour,

To keep us meek and make us free,
And throw its binding blessing more
Round each with all, and all with Thee.

4 Send down its angel to our side,
Send in its calm upon the breast;
For we would know no other guide,
And we can need no other rest.
