Text:The Lord, the universal King

60b. The Lord, the universal King

1 The Lord, the Universal King,
In Heav'n has fix'd his lofty Throne;
To Him, ye Angels, Praises sing,—
In whose great Strength his Pow'r is shewn.

2 Ye, that his just Commands obey,
And hear, and do his sacred Will:
Ye Hosts of His, this Tribute pay,—
Who still, what He ordains, fulfil.

3 Let ev'ry Creature jointly bless
The mighty Lord:— And thou, my Heart,
With grateful Joy thy Thanks express;
And in this Consort bear thy Part.
