Sing unto God on high,
And to Emmanuel,
Who reigns in yonder spacious sky,
And yet with men doth dwell.
Declare abroad His fame;
Let ev'ry heart rejoice,
And praise the Saviour's sacred name
With a united voice.
Dear Jesus! let Thy grace
Be in us, and inspire
Our hearts to run the heav'nly race
With an intense desire.
Thou art the Christians' friend
In ev'ry trying hour;
And Thou wilt save them in the end
From Satan's grasping power!
Then, when our work is done,
And all our trials o'er,
Permit us to surround Thy throne,
And praise Thee evermore.
