The God of Abraham Praise

Author: Daniel ben Judah; Thomas Olivers Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 454 hymnals Topics: God Love and Grace of Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise, who reigns enthroned above, Ancient of everlasting days and God of love. Jehovah! Great I AM! by earth and heav'n confessed; I bow and bless the sacred name, forever blest. 2 The God of Abraham praise, at whose supreme command from earth I rise and seek the joys at his right hand. I all on earth forsake, its wisdom, fame, and pow'r, and him my only portion make, my shield and tow'r. 3 He by himself hath sworn, I on his oath depend; I shall, on eagles' wings upborne, to heav'n ascend. I shall behold his face, I shall his pow'r adore, and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore. 4 The goodly land I see, with peace and plenty blest, a land of sacred liberty and endless rest. There milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound, and trees of life forever grow, with mercy crowned. 5 There dwells the Lord our King, the Lord our Righteousness, triumphant o'er the world and sin, the Prince of Peace. On Zion's sacred height his kingdom he maintains, and glorious with his saints in light forever reigns. 6 The whole triumphant host gives thanks to God on high; "Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!" they ever cry. Hail, Abraham's God and mine! I join the heav'nly lays; all might and majesty are thine, and endless praise.

One there is, above all others

But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled in him to God. This was boundless love indeed; Jesus is a Friend in need. 3 When he lived on earth abased, "Friend of sinners" was his name, Now above all glory raised, He rejoices in the same; Still he calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 Could we bear from one another What he daily bears from us? Yet this glorious Friend and Brother Loves us though we treat him thus: Though for good we render ill, He accounts us brethren still. 5 O for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above. But when home our souls are brought, We will love thee as we ought. Amen.
