Jehovah, great I AM, By earth and heaven confessed; I bow and bless the sacred Name, Forever blest. 2 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. 3 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 Forevermore. 4 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. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI (Yigdal)
