Part Two: 5 Glory to thee, who safe hast kept and hast refreshed me whilst I slept; grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake, I may of endless light partake. 6 Lord, I my vows to thee renew; disperse my sins as morning dew, grant my first springs of thought and will, and with thyself my spirit fill. 7 Direct, control, suggest this day all I design, or do, or say; that all my powers, with all their might, in thy sole glory may unite.

The Savior promised long! Let ev’ry heart prepare a throne, and ev’ry voice a song. On him the Spirit largely poured exerts its sacred fire, wisdom and might, and zeal and love, his holy breast inspire. 2 He comes the pris’ners to release, in Satan’s bondage held. The gates of brass before him burst, the iron fetters yield. He comes the broken heart to bind, the bleeding soul to cure, and with the treasures of his grace to enrich the humble poor. 3 His silver trumpets publish loud the day of jubilee. Our debts are all remitted now, he sets the people free. Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace, thy welcome shall proclaim, and heav’n’s eternal arches ring with thy beloved name.
