Author: George Herbert, 1593-1633 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #659 (1997) Meter: 7.4.7.4 D Hymnal Title: The Book of Praise Lyrics: 1 King of glory, King of peace,
I will love thee,
and, that love may never cease,
I will move thee.
Thou hast granted my request,
thou hast heard me;
thou didst note my working breast;
thou hast spared me.
2 Wherefore with my utmost art,
I will sing thee,
and the cream of all my heart
I will bring thee.
Though my sins against me cried,
thou didst clear me,
and alone, when they replied,
thou didst hear me.
3 Seven whole days, not one in seven,
I will praise thee;
in my heart, though not in heaven,
I can raise thee.
Small it is, in this poor sort
to enrol thee:
e'en eternity's too short
to extol thee. Topics: Forgiveness / Pardon; Jesus Christ Kingship / Reign; Love; Music / Singing / Song; One Life in Christ Discipleship; Praise; Sin / Sinner Scripture: Psalm 119:164 Languages: English Tune Title: GWALCHMAI
