Your Master proclaim, His wonderful Name; Of Jesus extol; And rules over all. 3 Thy bountiful care What tongue can recite ? It breathes in the air, It shines in the light, It streams from the hills, It descends to the plain, And sweetly distils In the dew and the rain. 2 God ruleth on high, Almighty to save; His presence we have.

To Thy living waters lead me; And with grace and mercy feed me; Rich in fruits that Thou dost love. 3 Kindle Thou the sacrifice That upon my lips is lying; That, from every error flying, That Thine altar doth not know. 4 Let me with my heart to-day, Holy, holy, holy, singing, rest. All my soul to Thee up-springing, Have a foretaste inly given, How they worship Thee in Heaven. 5 Rest in me and I in Thee, Build a paradise within me; O reveal Thyself to me, Blessed Love, who died'st to win me; Fed from Thine exhaustless urn, Pure and bright my lamp shall burn. 6 Hence all care, all vanity, For the day to God is holy: Come, thou glorious Majesty, Deign to fill this temple lowly; Naught to-day my soul shall move, Simply resting in Thy love.
