LXXII. Sov'reign Lord of might and glory!

1 Sov'reign Lord of might and glory!
Author of our mortal frame!
Joyfully we bow before thee,
And extol thine holy name:
Hallelujah!
Ever sacred be the theme!

2 Kind Dispenser of each blessing,
Which surrounds the human race!
May we gratefully possessing,
Still adore thy boundless grace:
Hallelujah!
Praise to God, immortal praise!

3 While with joyful exultation
We attend before thy throne,
Let us, with glad acclamation,
Thine abundant mercies own:
Hallelujah!
Praise belongs to thee alone!

4 In thine ev'ry dispensation,
Grace and mercy we descry;
Thou, the God of our salvation,
To preserve us, still art nigh:
Hallelujah!
Glory be to God on high!
