457. From Every Place

1 O thou to whom, in ancient time,
The psalmist's sacred harp was strung,
Whom kings adored in songs sublime,
And prophets praised with glowing tongue,

2 From ev'ry place below the skies,
The grateful song, the fervent prayer
The incense of the heart may rise
To heav'n, and find acceptance there.

3 To thee shall age, with snowy hair,
And strength, and beauty, bend the knee,
And childhood lisp with rev'rent air
Its praises and its prayers to thee.
