Nehemiah 9:6: Thee the angelic armies praise
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Thee the angelic armies praise,
Those first-born sons of light,
But cannot look on Jesu's face,
And bear the dazzling sight;
Ranks upon ranks, they fall before
The all-abasing Name,
In silent ecstasy to' adore
The glories of the Lamb!
