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,
the 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.
