HYMN XXVIII.
[Cover'd with conscious shame]
Cover'd with conscious shame,
And grieved, O Lord, I am,
Praise to most unworthy me
That my fellow-worms should give:
Praise belongs to none but Thee,
Praise let God alone receive.
And grieved, O Lord, I am,
Praise to most unworthy me
That my fellow-worms should give:
Praise belongs to none but Thee,
Praise let God alone receive.
Shall I, His creature, I,
By sinful robbery,
Take the honour and esteem
To my glorious Maker due?
No; I leave it all to Him,
Him, from whom my life I drew.

No; I leave it all to Him,

Father, accept Thine own
Through Jesus Christ Thy Son:
Honour, glory, power is Thine,
Mine (if Thou vouchsafe the grace)
With that heavenly choir to join,
In Thine everlasting praise.
Through Jesus Christ Thy Son:

Mine (if Thou vouchsafe the grace)
With that heavenly choir to join,
In Thine everlasting praise.
