In rapturous song I would swell the grand theme,

And my tribute of thanksgiving bring.

Oh! here is the mystery,—give glory to God;

The blessing is coming e’en now.

I’ll sing hallelujah, I’ll praise and adore,

And low in humility bow.

With the Psalmist, I cry, Come praise ye the Lord,

Praise and glory to God now belong;

My heart with my hands, lift to God in the Heavens,

Giving praise with the angelic throng.
