Verse 1
O heavenly King, look down from above,
Assist us to sing thy mercy and love,
So sweetly o’reflowing, so plenteous the store,
Thou still art bestowing, and giving us more.
Verse 2
O God of our life, we hallow thy name;
Our business and strife is thee to proclaim;
Accept our thanksgiving for creating grace,
The living the living shall shew forth thy praise.
Verse 3
Our Father and Lord Almighty art thou;
Preserv’d by thy word, we worship thee now,
The bountiful donor of all we enjoy,
Our tongues to thine honour and lives we employ.
Verse 4
But O above all thy kindness we praise,
From sin and from thrall which saves the lost race,
Thy Son thou hast given a world to redeem,
And bring us to heaven whose trust is in him.
Verse 5
Wherefore of thy LOVE we sing and rejoice
With angels above we lift up our voice:
Thy LOVE each believer shall gladly adore,
For ever and ever when time is no more.
