Thy kingdom, Lord, forever stands,
While earthly thrones decay;
And time submits to thy commands,
While ages roll away.
Thy sovereign bounty freely gives
Its unexhausted store,
And universal nature lives
On thy sustaining power.
Holy and just in all its ways
Is providence divine;
In all its works, immortal rays
Of power and mercy shine.
The praise of God,—delightful theme!—
Shall fill my heart and tongue:
Let all creation bless his name
In one eternal song.
