Before the great Three—One They all exulting stand; And tell the wonders He hath done, Thro’ all their land: The list’ning spheres attend, And swell the growing fame; And sing, in songs which never end, The wondrous name. The God who reigns on high, The great Archangels sing, And “Holy, holy, holy,” cry, Almighty King! Who was, and is, the same! And evermore shall be; Jehovah—Father—great I Am! We worship Thee. Before the Saviour’s face The ransom’d nations bow; O’erwhelmed at His Almighty grace, Forever new: He shows His prints of love— They kindle—to a flame! And sound through all the worlds above, The slaughter’d Lamb. The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high; “Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!” They ever cry: Hail, Abraham’s God—and _mine_! I join the heavenly lays, All might and majesty are Thine, And endless praise. Thomas Olivers, the author of the above hymn, lived to see the issue of at least thirty editions of it. -------------- APPENDIX (PAGE 118). THE LAST JUDGMENT. BY THOMAS OLIVERS. Come, immortal King of Glory, Now in Majesty appear, Bid the nations stand before Thee, Each his final doom to hear, Come to judgment, Come, Lord Jesus, quickly come. Speak the word, and lo! all nature Flies before Thy glorious face, Angels sing your great Creator, Saints proclaim His sovereign grace, While ye praise Him, Lift your heads and see Him come. See His beauty all resplendent, View Him in His glory shine, See His majesty transcendent, Seated on His throne sublime: Angels praise Him, Saints and angels praise the Lamb. Shout aloud, ye heavenly choirs, Trumpet forth Jehovah’s praise; Trumpets, voices, hearts and lyres! Speak the wonders of His grace! Sound before Him Endless praises to His name.
