O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
Psalm 57:7
Words: Charles Wesley, Psalms and Hymns 1743.
My heart is fixed, O God, my heart
Is fixed to triumph in Thy grace:
Awake, my lute, and bear a part
My glory is to sing Thy praise,
Till all Thy nature I partake,
And bright in all Thine image wake.
Thee will I praise among Thine own;
Thee will I to the world extol,
And make Thy truth and goodness known:
Thy goodness, Lord, is over all;
Thy truth and grace the heavens transcend;
Thy faithful mercies never end.
Be Thou exalted, Lord, above
The highest name in earth or Heaven;
Let angels sing Thy glorious love,
And bless the name to sinners given;
All earth and Heaven their king proclaim!
Bow every knee to Jesus’ name!
