1. The God of Ab- r'ham praise, Who reigns en- throned a- bove; An- cient of e- ver- last- ing days, and God of Love; Je- ho- vah, great I AM! by earth and Heav'n con- fessed; I bow and bless the sa- cred Name for- ev- er blessed.

2. The God of Ab- r'ham praise, at Whose su- preme com- mand From earth I rise and seek the joys at His right hand; I all on earth for- sake, its wis- dom, fame, and pow'r; And Him my on- ly Por- tion make, my Shield and Tow'r.

3. The God of Ab- r'ham praise, Whose all suf- fic- ient grace Shall guide me all my hap- py days, in all my ways. He calls a worm His friend, He calls Him- self my God! And He shall save me to the end, thro' Je- sus' blood.

4. He by Him- self has sworn; I on His oath de- pend, I shall, on ea- gle wings up- borne, to Heav'n a- scend. I shall be- hold His face; I shall His pow'r a- dore, And sing the won- ders of His grace for- ev- er- more.

5. Tho' na- ture's strength de- cay, and earth and hell with- stand, To Ca- naan's bounds I urge my way, at His com- mand. The wa- t'ry deep I pass, with Je- sus in my view; And thro' the how- ling wil- der- ness my way pur- sue.
