Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
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.
VERSE 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.
VERSE 3
Yea we know that thou rejoicest o'er each work of thine;
Thou did'st ears and hands and voices for thy praise design;
Craftsman's art and music's measure for thy pleasure all combine.
VERSE 4
In thy house great God we offer of thine own to thee;
And for thine acceptance proffer all unworthily
Hearts and minds and hands and voices in our choicest psalmody.
VERSE 5
Honour, glory might and merit thine for ever be,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Blessed Trinity!
Of the best that thou hast given, Earth and Heaven render thee.
