(quickly )
Glory
to His Name,
Which
Heaven
and
earth
eternally
adore ,
Who was, and
is, and
shall
be evermore !
He made
thy
body , and He made
thy
soul:
He
is
Jehovah , everlasting
Lord ,
And
while
eternal
ages
onward
roll
Creation
shall
be
subject
to His
word .
Thee , thou
profane , thou
double -damned
leech ,
He had
confounded
in
thy godless
mirth ,
But that His
unimagined
mercies
reach
From
earth
to Heaven
and
from
Heaven
to
earth .
He is
the all
in all, the
first
and
last ;
In
Him
the beginning
and
the
end
unite ;
He is
the
future
and He
is
the
past
:
He
is
the finite
and
the
infinite
.
I
will not
dare His wonder
to
proclaim
Which
do
not thou
endeavour
to
besmirch
.
Ye
who
desire
to
glorify
His
Name
,

To
church
!
I
heard
a
sermon
once
in
spring
,
When
last
I
went
to
church
five years ago
Such
a
dry
,
withered
,
cracked and crabbed
thing
As might have made the trees
forget
to
grow
.
To
church
!
God
is
a
spirit
,
not
a
creed
;
He
is
an
inner
,
outward
