Verse1
The God of Abraham praise !
Who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting days,
And God of love !
Jehovah, great I AM !
By earth and Heaven confest !
I bow, and bless the sacred name,
For ever blest !
Verse2
The God of Abraham praise !
At whose supreme command
From earth I rise, and seek the joys
At His right hand:
I all on earth forsake,
Its wisdom, fame, and power,
And Him my only portion make,
My Shield and Tower.
[[Verse 3]]
The God of Abraham praise !
Whose all-sufficient grace
Shall guide me all my happy days
In all my ways:
He calls a worm His friend !
He calls Himself my God !
And He shall save me to the end
Through Jesus’ blood !
Verse4
He by Himself hath sworn,
I on His oath depend;
I shall, on eagles’ wings upborne,
To heaven ascend:
I shall behold His face,
I shall His power adore,
And sing the wonders of His grace
For evermore !
Verse5
The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high :
” Hail ! Father, Son, and Holy Ghost !
They ever cry:
Hail ! Abraham’s God and mine !
I join the heavenly lays;
All might and majesty are Thine,
And endless praise
