Immortal Crowns

Oh God the only wise give ear

Our Savior and our King,

Let all the saints who sojourn here

Their humble praises bring.

'Tis his almighty mercy

His counsel, and' his care,

Preserves us safe from sin and death,

And every secret snare.

To our Redeemer, God, Wisdom and power belongs,

Immortal crowns of majesty, And everlasting songs.

He will present our souls,

Unblemished and complete,

Before the glory of his face,

When at last we meet

Then all the chosen seed

Shall gather round the throne,

Shall bless the wonders of his grace,

And make his marvels known.

To our Redeemer, God, Wisdom and power belongs,

Immortal crowns of majesty, And everlasting songs.

All our immortal hopes have led

To thee, our surety and our head;

Thy cross, thy cradle, and thy throne,

Are big with glories yet unknown.

To our Redeemer, God, Wisdom and power belongs,

Immortal crowns of majesty, And everlasting songs.

After Isaac Watts
