The God of Abraham praise, Who reigns enthroned above, Ancient of everlasting days, And God of love! Jehovah! great I AM! By earth and heaven confessed; I bow and bless the sacred name, Forever blest! The God of Abraham praise! At whose supreme command From earth I rise, and seek the joys At His right hand; I all on earth forsake, Its wisdom, fame, and power, And Him my only portion make, My shield and tower. The God of Abraham praise! Whose all-sufficient grace Shall guide me all my happy days In all my ways: He calls a worm His friend! He calls Himself my God! And He shall save me to the end Through Jesus' blood! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE FLOWER BOAT by ROBERT FROST JOY (2) by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON MY BOY by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON TO WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON ITALIAN PICTURES: THE COSTA SAN GIORGIO by MINA LOY |
