They shall speak of the glory, etc.
Psalm 145:11.
Mrs. Steele.
Come, you that love the Saviour’s name, And joy to make it known; The Sovereign of your heart proclaim, And bow before his throne. | 2 Behold your King, your Saviour, crowned With glories all divine; And tell the wondering nations round How bright these glories shine. | 3 Infinite power and boundless grace In him unite their rays; You that have seen his lovely face, Can you forbear his praise? | 4 When in the earthly courts we view The beauties of our King, We long to love as angels do, And wish like them to sing. | 5 And shall we long and wish in vain? Lord, teach our songs to rise! Thy love can animate our strain, And bid it reach the skies. | 6 O for the day, the glorious day! When heaven and earth shall raise, With all their powers, the raptured lay, To celebrate thy praise. | |
