150. 7s. M. Salisbury Coll.

Adoration.

1Holy, holy, holy Lord,

Be thy glorious name adored;

Lord, thy mercies never fail;

Hail, celestial goodness, hail!

2Though unworthy, Lord, thine ear,

Deign our humble songs to hear;

Purer praise we hope to bring,

When around thy throne we sing.

3There no tongue shall silent be;

All shall join in harmony;

That, through heaven's capacious round,

Praise to thee may ever sound.

4Lord, thy mercies never fail;

Hail, celestial goodness, hail!

Holy, holy, holy Lord,

Be thy glorious name adored.

God Glorious.

1O, worship the King, all glorious above,

And gratefully sing his wonderful love,

Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,

Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.

2Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?

It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,

It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,

And sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.

3Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,

In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail;

Thy mercies how tender! how firm to the end!

Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.

4Father Almighty, how faithful thy love!

While angels delight to hymn thee above,

The humbler creation, though feeble their lays

With true adoration shall lisp to thy praise.
