Representative Text

1 Lord, accept our humble praise
From Thy throne low bending;
Hear with gracious ear the lays
From our lips ascending.

2 Tune our hearts with sweet accord
As we raise our voices,
Thus to praise the risen Lord,
In whom earth rejoices.

3 In His name and through His love,
Come we, gladly singing
Songs of praise, to float above,—
Sweetly upward winging.

4 May we sing these songs of joy
Till earth ties shall sever!
Then Thy praise our tongues employ
In the blest forever.
