14. Praise to the Holiest

1 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise;
in all His words most wonderful,
most sure in all His ways!

2 O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
a second Adam to the fight,
and to the rescue came.

3 O wisest love! That flesh and blood,
which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against the foe,
should strive and should prevail.

4 And that the highest gift of grace
should flesh and blood refine;
God’s presence and His very self,
and essence all-divine.

5 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise;
in all His works most wonderful,
most sure in all His ways!
