JEHOVAH (WORSHIP)
Ancient of Days, who sittest throned in glory
Author: W. C. Doane Appears in 200 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ancient of Days, who sittest throned in glory;
To Thee all knees are bent, all voices pray;
Thy love hath blest the wide world’s wondrous story
With light and life since Eden’s dawning day.
2 O Holy Father, who hast led Thy children
In all the ages, with the Fire and Cloud,
Through seas dry-shod, through weary wastes bewildering;
To Thee, in reverent love, our hearts are bowed.
3 O Holy Jesus, Prince of Peace, and Savior,
To Thee we owe the peace that still prevails,
Stilling the rude wills of men’s wild behavior,
And calming passion’s wild and stormy gales.
4 O Holy Ghost, the Lord and the Life-Giver,
Thine is the quickening power that gives increase;
From Thee have flowed, as from a pleasant river,
Our plenty, wealth, prosperity, and peace.
5 O Triune God, with heart and voice adoring,
Praise we the goodness that doth crown our days;
Pray we, that Thou wilt hear us, still imploring
Thy love and favor, kept to us always. Topics: God His Trinity; God His Trinity; God Holy; Praise and Prayer Used With Tune: [Ancient of Days, who sittest throned in glory]

And all the tender mercies He hath shown;
Praise Him who pardons all our sin and blindness,
And calls us sons, and takes us for His own.

Resting in Him, His peace and joy possessing,
All things are ours, for we have all in Him.

With full and perfect love, His only Son;
