More joy than earth can e‘er afford,
Is found in God’s delightful word;
Be it my study night and day,
My guide through all the lonely way.
Clothed with a majesty divine,
Its doctrines and its precepts shine;
Infinite wisdom, truth and grace,
Appear in all its promises.
‘Tis here the Lord, as in a glass,
Displays the glories of his face,
Stoops from his high imperial throne,
And makes his great salvation known.
Then be his word to all addressed,
Able to make us wise and blessed,
Till the whole earth shall own his name,
And all his boundless love proclaim.
