1. GLORIOUS things of thee are spoken, He, whose word cannot be broken, What can shake thy sure repose ? 2. There the streams of living waters, Well supply thy sons and daughters, Ever flows their thirst t' assuage? Blessings, like the Lord, the giver, 3. Blest are all in thee residing, Wash'd from sin through Jesus' blood, He, within their hearts abiding, Makes them kings and priests to God: Over self to reign as kings; Each for a thank-off'ring brings.
