Angel
voices, ever singing
Round
thy throne of light,
Angel
harps, for ever ringing,
Rest
not day nor night;
Thousands
only live to bless thee,
And
confess thee
Lord
of might.
Yea,
we know that thou rejoicest
O’er
each work of thine;
Thou
didst ears and hands and voices
For
thy praise design;
Craftsman’s
art and music’s measure
For
thy pleasure all combine.
In
thy house, great God, we offer
Of
thine own to thee,
And
for thine acceptance proffer,
All
unworthily,
Hearts
and minds and hands and voices,
In
our choicest psalmody.
Honour,
glory, might, and merit
Thine
shall ever be,
Father,
Son and Holy Spirit,
Blessed
Trinity.
Of
the best that thou hast given,
Earth
and heaven
Render
thee. Amen.
