Ye saints, proclaim abroad

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 51:3

Verse 1

Ye saints, proclaim abroad The honors of your King; To Jesus, your incarnate God, Your songs of praises sing.

Verse 2

Not angels round the throne Of majesty above Are half so much in debt as we To our Immanuel's love.

Verse 3

They never sunk so low, They are not raised so high; They never knew such depths of woe, Such heights of majesty.

The Savior did not join Their nature to His own; For them He shed no blood divine Nor breathed a single groan.

May we with angels vie The Savior to adore; Our debts are greater far than theirs, O be our praises more!

Amen.
