Let everlasting glories crown

1

Let everlasting glories crownThy head, my Saviour and my Lord;Thy hands have brought salvation down,And stored the blessings in thy word.

2

In vain the trembling conscience seeksSome solid ground to rest upon;With deep distress the spirit breaks,Till we apply to Christ alone.

3

How well thy blessed truths agree!How wise and holy thy commands!Thy promises, how firm they be,How sure our hope and comfort stands!

4

Should all the forms that men deviseAssault my faith with treach'rous art,I'd call them vanity and lies,And bind the gospel to my heart.
