Now rule in every heart,
And ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of power!

4 To the great One in Three The highest praises be,

Hence evermore;
His sovereign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore.

C. Wesley, 1757

2 Heaven is still with glory ringing, Earth takes up the angels' cry, "Holy, holy, holy," singing, "Lord of hosts, the Lord Most High!" With His seraph train before Him, With His holy Church below, Thus conspire we to adore Him, Bid we thus our anthem flow:

3 "Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven, Earth is with its fulness stored; Unto Thee be glory given,

Holy holy, holy, Lord!"

Thus Thy glorious Name confessing,
We adopt Thine angels' cry,

"Holy, holy, holy!" blessing

Thee, the Lord of hosts Most High.

R. Mant, 1837

And hail Him as thy matchless King Thro' all eternity. A - men.

2 Crown Him the Lord of love;
Behold His hands and side,

Rich wounds, yet visible above
In beauty glorified:

No angel in the sky

Can fully bear that sight,

But downward bends his wond'ring eye At mysteries so bright.

3 Crown Him the Lord of peace, Whose power a sceptre sways From pole to pole, that wars may cease, And all be prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end, And round His pierced feet Fair flowers of Paradise extend Their fragrance ever sweet.

4 Crown Him the Lord of years,
The potentate of time,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime.

All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For Thou hast died for me;
Thy praise shall never, never fail
Throughout eternity.

3 Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King?

All, all Thine own, soul, heart, and strength, and mind;

I see Thy cross-there teach my heart to cling:

Oh, let me seek Thee, and oh, let me find.

4 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.

5 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,-
One holy passion filling all my frame;
The kindling of the Heaven-descended Dove.
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.

G. Croly, 1854
