AR

ROUND the throne of God
The host angelic throngs;
They spread their palms abroad,
And shout perpetual songs;
Him first they own,
Him last and best,
God ever blest,
And God alone.

2 "O holy, holy Lord,
Creation's sovereign King!
Thy majesty adored

Let all creation sing;
Who wast, and art,
And art to be;
Nor time shall see
Thy sway depart."

3 "Great are Thy works of praise,

O God of boundless might;

All just and true Thy ways,
Thou King of saints, in light:

Let all above,

And all below,
Conspire to show

Thy power and love."

4 "Who shall not fear Thee, Lord,
And magnify Thy name?
Thy judgments, sent abroad,
Thy holiness proclaim:
Nations shall throng
From every shore,
And all adore
In one loud song."

5 While thus the powers on high
Their swelling chorus raise,
Let earth and man reply,
And echo back the praise:
His glory own,
First, last, and best,
God ever blest,

And God alone.

Henry Ware, Jr., 1823
