1 Before the awful throne we bow Of heav'ns Eternal King; To him present the solemn vow, And hymns of praises sing. 2 How weak, great God, our nobles songs To magnify thy ways! Nor human nor angelick tongues Can shew forth all thy praise. 3 Yet be it now our chief delight Our feeble notes to join, Until with angels we unite In anthems more divine. 4 Nor from thy presence cast away The off'ring that we bring; Lord! teach our hearts aright to pray, And tune our lips to sing. | A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #LXVI (1789) |
