A SECOND HYMN FOR THE KIRK.

Be heaven's almighty King adored,
Of all good things the Giver!
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord
For ever, and for ever!
Let closed lips, moved at the word,
With glowing accents sever!
O Hallelujah to the Lord
For ever, and for ever!
Can other strains such sounds afford,
Of ecstasy? O never!
Sing Hallelujah to the Lord,
For ever, and for ever!
