23. The God of Abraham Praise

1 The God of Abr'ham praise,
Who reigns enthroned above,
The Ancient of eternal days
And God of Love.
Jehovah, great I AM,
By earth and heav'n confessed:
We bow and bless the sacred name
Forever blest.

2 He by Himself hath sworn;
We on His oath depend.
We shall, on eagles' wings upborne,
To heav'n ascend.
We shall behold His face;
We shall His power adore,
And sing the wonders of His grace
Forevermore.

3 The God Who reigns on high
The great archangels sing,
And "Holy, holy, holy," cry,
"Almighty King!"
Who was and is the same
And evermore shall be:
Eternal Father, great I AM,
We worship Thee.

4 The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high;
"Hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost!"
They ever cry.
Hail, Abr'ham's God and mine!
With heav'n our songs we raise:
All might and majesty are Thine
And endless praise.
