SONG I.

A general Song of Praise to GOD.

I.

HOW glorious is our heav'nly King, Who reigns above the Sky! How shall a Child presume to sing His dreadful Majesty?

II.

How great his Pow'r is, none can tell, Nor think how large his Grace; Not Men below, nor Saints that dwell On high before his Face.

III.

Not Angels that stand round the LORD, Can search his secret Will; But they perform his heav'nly Word, And sing his Praises still.

IV.

Then let me join this holy Train, And my first Off'rings bring; Th' eternal GOD will not disdain To hear an Infant sing.

V.

My Heart resolves, my Tongue obeys, And Angels shall rejoice, To hear their mighty Maker's Praise Sound from a feeble Voice.
