Blessing and honor
and glory and power,
Wisdom and riches
and strength evermore
Give ye to Him
Who our battle hath won
Whose are the kingdom,
the crown, and the throne.
Into the heav’n of the heav’ns
hath He gone,
Sitteth He now
in the joy of the throne,
Weareth He now
of the kingdom the crown,
Singeth He now
the new song with His own.
Soundeth the heaven
of the heavens with His Name;
Ringeth the earth
with His glory and fame;
Ocean and mountain,
stream, forest, and flower
Echo His praises and tell of His power.
Past are the darkness,
the storm, and the war,
Come is the radiance,
that sparkles afar,
Breaketh the gleam
of the day without end,
Riseth the Sun
that shall never descend.
Ever ascendeth
the song and the joy;
Ever descendeth
the love from on high;
Blessing and honor
and glory and praise,
This is the theme of the
hymns that we raise.
Life of all life, and
true Light of all light,
Star of the dawning
unchangingly bright,
Sun of the Salem
whose light is the Lamb,
Theme of the ever new,
ever glad psalm!
Give we the glory
and praise to the Lamb;
Take we the robe and the harp
and the palm;
Sing we the song of the Lamb
that was slain,
Dying in weakness,
but rising to reign.
