Text:Praise

XXXII. Praise

1 Living spirits! flames of fire!
Leader of th' immortal choir,
Fill the heav'n of heav'ns above,
Full of praise, as full of love.

2 Ancients! Elders! cry aloud,
Worthy thou the Saviour God,
Thrones, dominions,Angels join!
Glory, glory, Lord be thine.

3 Church first born! first fruits! proclaim
Honour to Emman'el's name,
Nations! kindreds! countless tongues!
Offer Christ your nobles songs.

4 Holy, holy, holy cry;
Heav'n and earth and sea reply,
Trump of God! repeat the strain,
God with us! pronounce Amen.
