Fathers to sons shall teach your name, And children learn your ways; Ages to come your truth proclaim, And nations sound your praise. 3. Your glorious deeds of ancient date Shall thru' the world be known; Your arm of pow'r, your heav'nly state, With public splendor shown. The world is managed by your hands, Your saints are ruled by love, And your eternal kingdom stands, Tho' rocks and hills remove.
