The Call - Part 2

"Praise the Lamb!" At once awaking, The gathered hosts their voices throng; Loud and wide - each tongue partaking - Rolls renewed the endless song.

Grateful incense this, ascending, Rises to the Father's throne; Every knee to Christ is bending; All the mind in heaven is one.

All the Father's counsels claiming Equal honours to the Son; All the Son's effulgence beaming - Glory of His Father's throne.

By the Spirit all-pervading, Radiant hosts unnumber'd round, Breathing glory never-fading, Echo back the blissful sound.

Joyful now the wide creation Rests in undisturbed repose; Blest in Jesus' full salvation, Sorrow now nor thraldom knows.

Rich the streams of bounty flowing- Common blessings from above, Life and holy joy, bestowing - Tell of God's unwearied love.

Hark! the heavenly notes again! Loudly swells the air-borne praise; Throughout creation's vault, "Amen!" "Amen!" responsive joy doth raise.
