I   How shall Tsing that majesty

which angels do admire?

Let dust in dust and silence lie;

sing, sing, ye heavenly choir.

Thousands of thousands stand around ~

thy throne, 0 God most high;

ten thousand times ten thousand sound ~

thy praise; but who am T?

S79

THE CO,\-L'vlU;\IION OF SAINTS

2   Thy brightness unto them appears,

whilst Tthy footsteps trace;

a sound of God comes to my ears,

 but they behold thy face.

They sing because thou art their Sun;

Lord, send a beam on me;

for where heav'n is but once begun,there alleluias be.

.Jolin Alasoll (c. 1645-<)4)

3 How great a being, Lord, is thine,

which doth all beings keep'

Thy knowledge is the onlv line ~

to sound so vast a deep.

Thou art a sea without a shore,

a sun without a sphere;

thv time is now and evermore,•

thy place is everywhere.
