He calls the hours His own;
Let heaven rejoice, let earth be glad
And praise surround the throne.

And praise surround the throne.

And Satan's empire fell;
Today the saints His triumphs spread
And all His wonders tell.

And all His wonders tell.

To David's holy Son!
Help us, O Lord; descend and bring
Salvation from the throne.

With messages of grace;
Who comes in God His Father's name
To save our sinful race.

Shall give Him nobler praise.
