Angel Voices, Ever Singing

Angel voices, ever singing, round Thy throne of light

Angel harps, forever ringing, rest not day or 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.



Lord, 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...
