Yes, we know that thou art near us, and wilt hear us constantly. 3 Yea, we know that thou rejoicest o'er each work of thine; thou didst ears and hands and voices for thy praise design; craftsman's art and music's measure for thy pleasure all combine. 4 In thy house, great God, we offer of thine own to thee; and for thine acceptance proffer all unworthily, hearts and minds and hands and voices in our choicest psalmody. 5 Honour, glory, might and merit thine shall ever be, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, blessèd Trinity.
