Praise shall employ my nobler powers; My days of praise shall ne'er be

past,

While life, and thought, and being last, Or im mortality en - dures.

EISENACH. L. M.

Johann Hermann Schein. (1586-1630.) 1628.

1. THEE we a - dore, e - ternal Lord, We praise Thy name with one ac - cord;

Thy saints, who here Thy good- ness see, Through all the world do worship Thee.

2 To Thee aloud all angels cry,

The heavens and all the powers on high:
Thee, Holy, holy, holy King,
Lord God of Hosts, they ever sing.

3 Th' apostles join the glorious throng;
The prophets swell th' immortal song;
The martyrs' noble army raise
Eternal anthems to Thy praise.

4 From day to day, O Lord, do we
Highly exalt and honor Thee:
Thy name we worship and adore,
World without end, for evermore.

5 Vouchsafe, O Lord, we humbly pray,
To keep us safe from sin this day:
Have mercy, Lord, we trust in Thee;
O let us ne'er confounded be.

1 ETERNAL Father, when to Thee, Beyond all worlds, by faith I soar, Before Thy boundless majesty

I stand in silence, and adore.

2 But, Saviour, Thou art by my side:
Thy voice I hear, Thy face I see.
Thou art my friend, my daily guide;
God over all, yet God with me.

3 And Thou, Great Spirit, in my heart
Dost make Thy temple day by day:
The Holy Ghost of God Thou art,
Yet dwellest in this house of clay.

4 Blest Trinity, in Whom alone

All things created move or rest, High in the heavens Thou hast Thy throne, Thou hast Thy throne within my breast.

Rev. Hervey Doddridge Ganse. (1822-) 1872.

The Trinity humbly worshipped.

2 Almighty Son, incarnate Word,
Our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend:
To us Thy saving grace extend.

3 Eternal Spirit, by whose breath

The soul is raised from sin and death, Before Thy throne we sinners bend: To us Thy quickening power extend.

4 Jehovah, Father, Spirit, Son,—

I PRAISES to Him whose love has given, In Christ, His Son, the Life of Heaven; Who for our darkness gives us light, And turns to day our deepest night.

2 Praises to Him, in grace who came,
To bear our woe, and sin, and shame;
Who lived to die, who died to rise,
The God-accepted sacrifice.

3 Praises to Him the chain who broke,
Opened the prison, burst the yoke,
Sent forth its captives glad and free,
Heirs of an endless liberty.

4 Praises to Him who sheds abroad
Within our hearts the love of God;

The Spirit of all truth and peace,
Fountain of joy and holiness!

5 To Father, Son, and Spirit now
The hands we lift, the knees we bow;
To Thee, Jehovah, thus we raise
The sinner's endless song of praise.
Rev. Horatius Bonar. (1808-) 1861. ab. and alt.

I BLEST Trinity, from mortal sight
Veiled in Thine own eternal Light,
We Thee confess, in Thee believe,
To Thee with loving hearts we cleave.
2 O Father, Thou most Holy One!
O God of God, Eternal Son!
O Holy Ghost, Thou Love divine!
To join them Both is ever Thine.

3 The Father is in God the Son,
And with the Father He is One:
In Both the Spirit doth abide,
And with them Both is glorified.

4 Such as the Father, such the Son,
And such the Spirit, Three in One:
The Three one perfect Verity,
The Three one perfect Charity.

5 Eternal Father, Thee we praise;
To Thee, O Son, our hymns we raise;
O Holy Ghost, we Thee adore:
One mighty God for evermore.

Santolius Maglorianus. (1624-1684.) Tr. by Rev. Sir Henry Williams Baker. (1821-) 1861

Louis Joseph Ferdinand Herold. (1791-1833) 1830. Arr. by George Kingsley (1811-) 1838

I. GOD eternal, Lord of all, Low-ly at Thy feet we fall, All the earth doth worship Thee;
