Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H12.II (1789) First Line: Honor and happiness unite Lyrics: 5 Honor and happiness unite
To make the christian's name a praise:
How fair the scene, how clear the light,
That fills the remnant of his days!
6 A kingly character he bears,
No change his priestly office knows:
Unfading is the crown he wears,
His joys can never reach a close.
7 Of God anointed from on high,
The truth he boldly will profess;
He dares to live and dares to die,
His steps are dignity and grace.
8 The noblest creatures seen below,
Ordain'd to fill a throne above;
God gives him all he can bestow,
His kingdom of eternal love!
