The God of Abraham praise

Author: Thomas Olivers, 1724-1799 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #331 (1997) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise, who reigns enthroned above, ancient of everlasting days, and God of love. Almighty, great I Am! by earth and heaven confessed, I bow and bless the sacred name forever blest. 2 The God of Abraham praise, at whose supreme command from earth I rise and seek the joys at God's right hand. I all on earth forsake, its wisdom, fame and power, and Lord my only portion make, my shield and tower. 3 Though nature’s strength decay, and earth and hell withstand, to Canaan’s bounds I urge my way at God's command; the watery deep I pass with Jesus in my view; and through the howling wilderness my way pursue. 4 The goodly land I see, with peace and plenty blest, a land of sacred liberty and endless rest; there milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound, and trees of life forever grow, with mercy crowned. 5 There dwells the Lord our King, the Lord our Righteousness; triumphant o’er the world and sin, the Prince of Peace On Zion’s sacred height God's kingdom still maintains, and glorious with the saints in light forever reigns. 6 The whole triumphant host give thanks to God on high; "hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost" they ever cry. Hail, Abraham’s God, and mine! I join the heavenly lays; all might and majesty are thine, and endless praise. Scripture: Genesis 15:1 Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI
