Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #354 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic like the sun;
It gives a light to every age;
It gives, but borrows none.
2 The Hand that gave it still supplies
The gracious light and heat;
His truths upon the nations rise;
They rise, but never set.
3 Let everlasting thanks be Thine
For such a bright display,
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day.
4 My soul rejoices to pursue
The steps of Him I love,
Till glory break upon my view
In brighter worlds above.
AMEN. Topics: The Holy Scripture Languages: English Tune Title: BURLINGTON
