Classic Poem

Sovereign Will enthron'd on high,
In th' Eternal's awful breast,
Thee we laud and glorify,
Ever perfect, ever best.

Order, wisdom, beauty, might,
Sanctity, and love are Thine;
Truth Thy sempiternal light,
Equity Thy law divine.

Thee the heav'ns adore and bless;
Thee, wherever worlds extend,
All created things confess
Their beginning as their end.

Thee the fallen sons of men
Their eternal glory own;
Call'd to Paradise again
By Thy purest grace alone.

O, confirm our feeble will
All Thy counsels to obey;
Where it hears Thy whisper still,
There to press without delay.

Glory to the Godhead trine,
Only true and only fair!
One in will and pow'r divine,
One in providential care!
