What name among thy seats divine, Of equal excellence posses'd, Thy sovereignty, great God, contest? 3 Thee, Lord, Heaven's hosts, their leader own; Thee might unbounded, thee alone, With endless majesty has crown'd, And faith, unsully'd, vests thee round. 4 The heaven above and earth below, Thee, Lord, their great possessor know; By thee this orb to being rose, And all that nature's bounds inclose. 5 From thee amid the aereial space; The north and south assume their place; 'Tis thine the ocean's rage to guide, And calm at will its swelling tide. 6 O, blest the tribes whose willing ear Awakes the festal shout to hear; Who thankful see, where'er they tread, Thy favoring beams around them spread. 7 How shall they joy from day to day, Thy boundless mercy to display, Thy righteousness, indulgent Lord, With holy confidence record! 8 O wise in all thy works! thy name Let man's whole race aloud proclaim, And, grateful, thro' the length of days, In ceaseless songs repeat thy praise.

Come blessed spirit from above

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 145 Lyrics: 1 Come blessed spirit from above, And visit us below-- Cause us to taste and feel thy love: In thee to live and grow. 2 No gift but thine our soul inspires To love thee as we would; Nor work is us such pure desires, To serve thee as we should. 3 Thy gifts alone can cheer the mind And cause our fears depart; Without that, we are deaf and blind, And of a stubborn heart. 4 By nature we are prone to ill: Perverse are all our ways-- And we have neither strength nor will To live unto thy praise. 5 But when thy blessings are bestow'd, These wants are all supplied! And we partake the grace of God Till we are sanctified. 6 Thus we are made the truth to hear, And trust unto thy word-- And with a Godly holy fear To worship thee our Lord. Topics: Whitsun-Monday
