Author: Dr. N. Strong, 1748-1816 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #33 (1917) Lyrics: 1. Swell the anthem, raise the song;
Praises to our God belong;
Saints and angels join to sing
Praises to the heavenly King.
2. Blessings from His liberal hand
Flow around this happy land:
Kept by Him, no foes annoy;
Peace and freedom we enjoy.
3. Here, beneath a virtuous sway,
May we cheerfully obey;
Never feel oppression's rod,
Ever own and worship God.
4. Hark! the voice of nature sings
Praises to the King of kings;
Let us join the choral song,
And the grateful notes prolong. Topics: National Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving National; National Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving National; The Godhead Adoration and Praise; National Prosperity Languages: English Tune Title: MONKLAND
