Good morning from SCC on the last day of term,
Thank you very much to you all for your ongoing support of this Chapel Blog, which finishes today.
Revelation 21:1-4, The New Heaven and the New Earth
Hymn 366
1. Praise, my soul, the king of heaven!
To his feet thy tribute bring:
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
who like me his praise should sing:
Praise him! Praise him!
Praise the everlasting king!
2. Praise him for his grace and favour
To our fathers in distress;
Praise him still the same for ever,
Slow to chide and swift to bless:
Praise him! Praise him!
Glorious in his faithfulness
3. Father-like, he tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hands he gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes,
Praise him! Praise him!
Widely as his mercy flows.
4. Angels, help us to adore him;
Ye behold him face to face;
Sun and moon bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Praise him! Praise him!
Praise with us the God of grace.
Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847)
