Religion
Our King
From Under the Surface
O Saviour, precious Saviour,
Whom yet unseen we love ;
O Name of might and favour,
All other names above !
We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
To Thee alone we sing ;
We praise Thee, and confess Thee
Our holy Lord and King !
O Bringer of salvation,
Who wondrously hast wrought,
Thyself the revelation
Of love beyond our thought !
We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
To Thee alone we sing ;
We praise Thee, and confess Thee
Our gracious Lord and King !
In Thee all fulness dwelleth,
All grace and power divine ;
The glory that excelleth,
O Son of God, is Thine :
We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
To Thee alone we sing ;
We praise Thee, and confess Thee
Our glorious Lord and King !
Oh, grant the consummation
Of this our song above,
In endless adoration,
And everlasting love :
Then shall we praise and bless Thee,
Where perfect praises ring,
And evermore confess Thee
Our Saviour and our King !
