Uplifted Voices ‎#3

3. Uplifted Voices

1 Uplifted voices, Heaven’s Choir!
Praising in melodies sublime;
Love tunes their music, they ne’er tire,
Nor shall their chantings cease with time.

Refrain:
“Glory forever!” angels adore!
Sing to His praises evermore!
Mention His name who reigneth above,
Great in His wisdom, pow’r and love.

2 Uplifted voices, sweetly swelling,
Now faint and far, now loud and near;
Songs by the saved, their triumph telling,
Hear them resounding strong and clear. [Refrain]

3 Uplifted voices, softly trilling,
Songs that the angels e’er intone,
Music of love, our tribute willing,
Rise with our pray’rs to Heaven’s throne. [Refrain]
