And ever shall be.

To the Father, to the Son,

Now is given, and shall be so
While endless ages last.

As was throughout the ages past.

Come, let us adore Him; come, bow at his feet; O give Him the glory, the praise that is meet; Let joyful hosannas unceasing arise,

And join the full chorus that gladdens the skies.

My offerings to God's house I'll bring
My soul, for help on God rely
My soul, howe'er distress'd and poor
My soul, inspired with sacred love
My soul, oppress'd with deadly care
My soul with grateful thoughts of love
My soul with long expectance faints
No change of time shall ever shock
O all ye people, clap your hands
O bless the Lord, my soul
O come, loud anthems let us sing
O God, my gracious God, to thee
O God, my heart is fix'd, 'tis bent
O God, my heart is fully bent
O God of hosts, the mighty Lord
O God our Saviour, all our hearts
O Lord, my God, my portion thou
O Lord, the Saviour and defence
O Lord, thy mercy, my sure hope
O praise the Lord, and thou, my soul
O praise the Lord, for he is good
O praise the Lord in that blest place
O praise the Lord with hymns of joy
O praise the Lord with one consent
praise ye the Lord

O render thanks, and bless the Lord
O render thanks to God above
