HYMNS OF GENERAL HOMAGE, AND ON PUBLIC WORSHIP.
The One Living and True God.
ETERNAL GOD! Almighty Cause
Of earth, and seas, and worlds unknown! All things are subject to thy laws; All things depend on thee alone.
Thy glorious being singly stands, Of all within itself possess'd; By none controll'd in thy commands, And in thyself completely bless'd.
Worship to thee alone belongs; Worship to thee alone we give :
Thine be our hearts, and thine our songs, And to thy glory may we live.
Spread thy great name through every land; In every heart erect thy throne;
Subdue the world to thy command,
And reign unrivall'd, God alone.
"After this manner pray ye.”—Matt. vi. 9.
FATHER of all! Eternal Mind! Supremely good and great!
Thy children, form'd and bless'd by thee, Approach thy heavenly seat.
Thy name in hallow'd strains be sung! We join the solemn praise;
To thy great name, with heart and tongue, Our cheerful homage raise.
Thy righteous, mild, and sovereign reign, Let every being own:
And in our minds, thy work divine, Erect thy gracious throne.
As angels round thy seat above Thy bless'd commands fulfil, So may thy creatures here below Perform thy heavenly will.
On thee we day by day depend, And on thy care rely: Give us each day our daily bread, And every want supply.
Extend thy grace to every fault; Oh let thy love forgive! Teach us divine forgiveness too, Nor let resentment live.
Where tempting snares beset the way, Permit us not to tread :
Or turn all real evil far From our unguarded head.
Thy sacred name we would adore, With joyful, humble mind;
And praise thy goodness, power, and truth, Eternal, unconfin'd!
ETERNAL Spirit, Lord of all!
Supremely good and wise! To thee we pay our grateful vows, To thee lift up our eyes.
Thy glorious name we here adore, And worship thee alone : To thee be praise for ever paid, Through Jesus Christ thy Son.
Our dark and erring minds illume With truth's celestial rays; Inspire our hearts with sacred love, And tune our lips to praise.
Conduct us safely, by thy hand, Through life's perplexing road; And place us, when that journey's o'er, In heaven thy blest abode.
GREAT King of kings! Eternal God! Shall mortal creatures dare to raise Their songs to thy supreme abode, And join with angels in thy praise?
The brightest seraph veils his face; And low before thy dazzling throne,
