Lord the Almighty, Thee we praise, –
Father, Thy love we own ;
And in the Faith of Christ we raise
Our worship to Thy Throne,
And pray for grace to keep us true
To Thee, in all we plan and do.
Lord, Who illimitable space, –
Eternity, dost fill ;
While suns and planets in their place
Obey their Maker’s will ;
We, in the grace of Christ brought near,
Would humbly serve Thee in our sphere.
Lord of the Continents and Isles,
Lord of the mighty seas ;
When Nature either frowns or smiles,
In sunshine or the breeze,
In all Thine earth, O grant that we
May own Thee, love Thee, serve but Thee.
(Gerard Addington D Arcy Irvine)
