Hymn 571
The God of Abraham praise
1 The God of Abraham praise, 
who reigns enthroned above; 
Ancient of Everlasting Days, 
and God of Love; 
Jehovah, 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 His right hand,                                                                                                      I all on earth forsake,                                                                                              Its wisdom, fame and power,                                                                                                   And Him my only portion make,                                                                                                           My shield and tower.
3 He by Himself  hath sworn; 
I on this oath depend. 
I shall, on eagle wings upborne, 
to heaven ascend.
I shall behold God's face; 
I shall God's power adore, 
and sing the wonders of God's grace 
forevermore.
4 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,                                                                                          His Kingdom He maintains,                                                                                                      And glorious with His saints in light                                                                                   For ever reigns.
5 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.
