1 /^\ Heavenly King, Look down from above ; ^-^ Assist us to sing Thy mercy and love : So sweetly o'erflowing, So plenteous the store, Thou still art bestowing, And giving us more. 2 O God of our life, We hallow thy Name ; Our business and strife Is thee to proclaim ; Accept our thanksgiving For creating grace ; The living, the living Shall show forth thy praise 3 Our Father and Lord, Almighty art Thou ; Preserved by thy word, We worship thee now. The bountiful Donor Of all we enjoy ! Our tongues to thine honour, And lives we employ. 4 But O ! above all, Thy kindness we praise, From sin and from thrall Which saves the lost race ; Thy Son thou hast given The world to redeem, And bring us to heaven, Whose trust is in him. Ub For Believers Rejoicing. 5 Wherefore of thy love We sing and rejoice ; With angels above We lift up our voice : Thy love each believer Shall gladly adore, For ever and ever, When time is no more. HYMN 200. lO^S-ir*. 1 A/fY Father, my God, I long for thy love; -L' -*- O shed it abroad ; Send Christ from above! My heart, ever fainting, He only can cheer ; And all things are wanting, Till Jesus is here. 2 O when shall my tongue Be fill'd with thy praise ! While all the day long I publish thy grace, Thy honour and glory To sinners forth show, Till sinners adore thee, And own thou art true. 3 Thy strength and thy power I now can proclaim, Preserved every hour Through Jesus's Name ; For thou art still by me, And boldest my hand ; No ill can come nigh me, By faith while I stand. 4 My God is my guide : Thy mercies abound ; On every side They compass me round : Thou savest me from sickness, From sin dost retrieve, And strengthen 'st my weakness, And bidd'st me believe. 5 Thou holdest my soul In spiritual life, My foes dost control, And quiet their strife ; Thou rulest my passion, My pride and self-will ; To see thy salvation, Thou bidd'st me " stand still! ^
