Lyrics

Jehovah, Thee we praise,
The triune God adore;
To Fa­ther, Son and Spi­rit raise
Glad anthems ev­er­more,
Glad anthems ev­er­more.

Thou art exalted high,
Thrice holy is Thy throne;
With sinless seraphs would we vie
To make Thy glo­ry known,
To make Thy glo­ry known.

Thrice holy, Lord, they cry,
Before Thy throne above;
Thrice holy, we on earth reply,
Thou God of light and love,
Thou God of light and love.

Thou art the sovereign Lord
Of angels and of men;
We bow submissive to Thy Word,
Nor shall we bow in vain,
Nor shall we bow in vain.

Accept, O God of grace,
The offering which we bear
Before Thee, as to Heav’n we raise
Our voice in praise and prayer,
Our voice in praise and prayer.
