Whose mercies over all rejoice, Through endless ages still the same ; Thou by thy word upholdest all ; Thy bounteous love to all is show'd ; Thou hear'st thy every creature's call, And fillest every mouth with good. 2 In heaven thou reign'st enthroned in light, Nature's expanse beneath thee spread ; Earth, air, and sea, before thy sight, And hell's deep gloom, are open laid ! Wisdom, and might, and love are thine ; Prostrate before thy face we fall, Confess thine attributes divine, And hail thee sovereign Lord of all. 3 Thee sovereign Lord let all confess, That moves in earth, or air, or sky ; Revere thy power, thy goodness bless, Tremble before thy piercing eye : All ye, who owe to him your birth, In praise your every hour employ : Jehovah reigns ! be glad, O earth ; And shout, ye morning stars, for joy, 228 For Believers Rejoicing. HYMN 236. l. m. 1 ^! ON of thy Sire's eternal love, ^ Take to thyself thy mighty power Let all earth's sons thy mercy prove, Let all thy bleeding grace adore : The triumphs of thy love display ; In every heart reign thou alone, Till all thy foes confess thy sway,
