Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 31 hymnals First Line: God, we praise you! God we bless you! Lyrics: 1 God, we praise you! God, we bless you!
God, we name you sovereign Lord!
Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by your church adored:
all creation shows your glory, heaven and earth draw near your throne
singing "Holy, holy, holy, Lord of hosts, and God alone!"
2 True apostles, faithful prophets, saints who set their world ablaze,
martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, join one growing song of praise,
while your church on earth confesses one majestic Trinity:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally.
3 Jesus Christ, the king of glory, everlasting Son of God,
humble was your virgin mother, hard the lonely path you trod:
by your cross is sin defeated, hell confronted face to face,
heaven opened to believers, sinners justified by grace.
4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, you will judge the world you made;
Lord, in mercy help your servants for whose freedom you have paid:
raise us up from dust to glory, guard us from all sin today;
King enthroned above all praises, save your people, God, we pray. Topics: All Saints' Day; Biblical Canticles; God Power; God Sovereign; Heritage; Martyrs; Praise of God; Trinity Sunday Scripture: Psalm 9:1 Used With Tune: RUSTINGTON Text Sources: Paraphrase of Te Deum laudamus
