Come and exalt his name,
Whose wisdom, power and grace,
Combined to save from quenchless flames,
A vile apostate race.
Praise the Eternal Three,
Who formed the glorious scheme,
To set unhappy captives free,
And rebels to redeem.
Praise his unbounded love,
Whence streams of mercy flow;
This work will never cease above,
Begin it here below.
To your incarnate God,
Your tuneful voices raise;
Come spread his honours all abroad,
In strains of lofty praise.
