Be thou exalted, O my God!

Above the heavens where angels dwell;

Thy power on earth be known abroad,

And land to land thy wonders tell.

2 My heart is fixed; my song shall raise

Immortal honors to thy name:

Awake, my tongue, to sound his praise,

My tongue, the glory of my frame.

3 High o’er the earth his mercy reigns,

And reaches to the utmost sky;

His truth to endless years remains,

When lower worlds dissolve and die.
