Sheet music
- 1My gracious Redeemer I love!His praises aloud I’ll proclaim,And join with the armies above,To shout His adorable name.To gaze on His glories divineShall be my eternal employ,And feel them incessantly shine,My boundless, ineffable joy.
- 2Earth’s palaces, scepters, and crowns,Their pride with disdain I survey;Their pomps are but shadows and sounds,And pass in a moment away.The crown that my Savior bestowsYon permanent sun shall outshine;My joy everlastingly flows-My God, my Redeemer, is mine.
