Chalice Hymnal ‎#110

110. You Servants of God

1 Your servants of God, your Savior proclaim,
and publish abroad that wonderful name:
the name all-victorious of Jesus extol;
who, sovereign and glorious, now rules over all.

2 God truth reaches high, almighty to save;
and yet remains nigh: God's presence we have.
The great congregation God's triumphs shall praise,
ascribing salvation to Jesus always.

3 Salvation to God who sits on the throne!
Let all cry aloud for what God has done.
The praises of Jesus the angels proclaim;
still veiling their faces, they worship the Lamb.

4 Then let us adore and render God's right,
all glory and power, all wisdom and might,
all honor and blessing with angels above,
and thanks never-ceasing, and infinite love.
