PD1 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! 2 Thou, Who art beyond the farthest Mortal eye can scan, Can it be that Thou regardest Songs of sinful man? Can we know that Thou art near us, And wilt hear us? Yea, we can! 3 Yea, we know Thy love rejoicest O'er each work of Thine; Thou didst ears and hands and voices For Thy praise combine; Craftsman's art and music's measure For Thy pleasure Didst design. 4 Here, great God, to-day we offer Of Thine own to Thee; And for Thine acceptance proffer, All unworthily, Hearts and minds and hands and voices, In our choicest Melody. 5 Honor, glory, might and merit, Thine shall ever be, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Blessèd Trinity! Of the best that Thou hast given Earth and heaven Render Thee.
