5. Now Unto the King Eternal

1 A song is in my heart today,
It gladdens ev’ry hour;
‘Tis praise to Him who guides my way,
And keeps me by His power.

Refrain:
Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God,
Be honor and glory, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

2 He’s able to preserve my soul,
My trust is staid on Him;
And when the clouds above me roll,
His light is never dim. [Refrain]

3 Oft in my weakness would I fall,
But for His arms of love;
He quickly answers ev’ry call
With blessing from above. [Refrain]

4 Someday, thro’ boundless grace alone,
I’ll reach the mansions fair;
Amid the glories ’round the throne
I’ll sing His praises there. [Refrain]
