Wisdom and wealth and high renown,
Belonged to Solomon;
But what was Israel’s mighty king,
To God’s almighty Son!
His understanding infinite,
Unbounded is his power;
Thro’ heaven and earth his fame extends,
Let heaven and earth adore.
Treasures of grace and glory too,
He gives with liberal hand;
Kingdoms and empires rise and fall
At his supreme command.
Monarchs are weak and dying worms,
But he the living God;
Awake, my joyful powers and spread
His praises all abroad.
