Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims
His various, and his saving names:
O may they not be heard alone,
But by our sure experience known.
Let great Jehovah be adored,
The eternal, all-sufficient Lord;
He, through the world, Most High confessed,
By whom ‘twas formed, and is possessed.
Awake our noblest powers to bless
The God of Abra’m, God of peace;
Now by a dearer title known,
Father and God of Christ his Son.
Through ev’ry age his gracious ear
Is open to his servants’ prayer;
Nor can one humble soul complain,
That it hath sought its God in vain.
What unbelieving heart shall dare
In whispers to suggest a fear,
While still he owns his ancient name,
The same his power, his love the same?
To thee our souls in faith arise
To thee we lift expecting eyes;
And boldly through the desert tread,
For God will guard, where God shall lead.
