The God of Abram Praise Who reigns enthroned above.

Hymn written by T. Olivers
  1. The God of Abram 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
      For ever blest.
  1. The God of Abram 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.
  1. The God of Abram praise,
         Whose all-sufficient grace
    Shall guide me all my happy days
       In all His ways:
    He calls a worm His friend!
         He calls Himself my God!
    And He shall save me to the end
       Through Jesus' blood.
  1. He by Himself hath sworn;
         I on His oath depend;
    I shall on eagles' wings upborne,
       To heaven ascend;
    I shall behold His face,
         I shall His power adore,
    And sing the wonders of His grace
       For evermore.
