CIX. HYMN FOR A CHILD ON HIS BIRTHDAY.
Great Author of my being,
Thankful I bow before Thee,
Thine own I am
From whom I came,
And all my powers adore Thee;
I triumph in existence,
Enjoy my Maker's favour,
Created I
To glorify
And love my God for ever.
Thankful I bow before Thee,
Thine own I am
From whom I came,
And all my powers adore Thee;
I triumph in existence,
Enjoy my Maker's favour,
Created I
To glorify
And love my God for ever.
While all that breathe acknowledge
Their merciful Creator,
O God of grace
Accept the praise
Of universal nature:
And let us with our Father
Adore the Son and Spirit,
Through whom we rise
Beyond the skies,
And heavenly joys inherit.
