Sole, self-existing God and Lord,
By all thy heavenly hosts ador’d,
Let all on earth bow down to thee,
And bless thy peerless majesty,
Thy power unparallell’d confess,
Establish’d on the Rock of peace,
The Rock that never shall remove,
The Rock of pure almighty love.
Sole self-existing God and Lord
