Hymn of the Day: Angel Voices Ever Signing

Angel voices, ever singing

Round thy throne of light,

Angel harps, for ever ringing,

Rest not day nor night;

Thousands only live to bless thee,

And confess thee

Lord of might.



Thou who art beyond the farthest

Mortal eye can scan,

Can it be that thou regardest

Songs of sinful man?

Can we feel that thou art near us,

And wilt hear us?

Yea, we can.



Yea, we know thy love rejoices

O'er each work of thine;

Thou didst ears and hands and voices

For thy praise combine;

Craftsman's art and music's measure

For thy pleasure

Didst design.

Here, great God, today we offer

Of thine own to thee;

And for thine acceptance proffer,

All unworthily,

Hearts and minds, and hands and voices,

In our choicest

Melody.



Honor, glory, might, and merit,

Thine shall ever be,

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,

Blessed Trinity:

Of the best that thou hast given

Earth and heaven

Render thee.
