To Thee, Eternal Soul, Be Praise!

To Thee

eter­nal Soul

be praise!

Who

from of old to our own days

Through souls of saints and pro­phets

Lord

Hast sent Thy light

Thy love

Thy Word.

We thank Thee for each migh­ty one

Through whom Thy liv­ing light hath shone;

And for each hum­ble soul and sweet

That lights to Heav­en our wan­der­ing feet.

We thank Thee for the love di­vine

Made real in ev­ery saint of Thine;

That bound­less love it­self that gives

In serv­ice to each soul that lives.

We thank Thee for the Word of might

Thy Spir­it spake in dark­est night.

Spake through the trum­pet voic­es loud

Of pro­phets at Thy throne who bowed.

Eternal Soul

our souls keep pure

That like Thy saints we may en­dure;

Forever through Thy serv­ants

Lord

Send Thou Thy light

Thy love

Thy Word.
