43. To thee, my God and Saviour

1 To thee, my God and Saviour,
My heart, exulting sings,
Rejoicing in thy favor,
Almighty King of kings;
I’ll celebrate thy glory,
With all the saints above,
And tell the joyful story
Of thy redeeming love.

2 Soon as the morn with roses
Bedecks the dewy east,
And when the sun reposes
Upon the ocean’s breast,
My voice in supplication,
O Saviour, thou shalt hear;
O, grant me thy salvation,
And to my soul draw near.

3 By thee through life supported,
I pass the dangerous road,
With heavenly hosts escorted
Up to thy bright abode;
Then cast my crown before thee,
And all my conflicts o'er,
Unceasingly adore thee;
What could an angel more?
