English Lyrics
The God of Abraham praise, Who reigns enthroned above; Ancient of everlasting days, And God of love. Jehovah, great I AM, By earth and heaven confessed; I bow and bless the sacred Name; Forever blest. The God of Abraham praise, At whose supreme command From earth I rise, and seek the joys At His right hand. I all on earth forsake, Its wisdom, fame, and power; And Him my only portion make, My shield and tower. He by Himself hath sworn, I on His oath depend, I shall, on eagles wings up-borne, To heaven ascend; I shall behold His face, I shall His power adore, And sing the wonders of His grace, Forevermore. 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.
