Cameroon hymnal hymn six (6)

COME THOU ALMIGHTY KING

VERSE 1
Come, Thou almighty King,
Help us your name to sing.
Help us to praise!
Father all glorious, wholly victorious.
Come and rule over us, Ancient of Days.

VERSE 2
Come, Thou Incarnate Word,
And make your message heard
Our prayer attend;
Come and your people bless,
And give your word success;
And let your holiness, to us descend.

VERSE 3
Come, holy Comforter,
Your sacred witness bear,
In this glad hour;
You who almighty art, enlighten every heart
From us do not depart, Spirit of pow’r.

VERSE 4
To you, great One in Three,
Eternal praises be,
Hence, ever more!
Your sovereign majesty, may we in glory see,
And to eternity love and adore.

HOW GREAT IS YOUR NAME (PSALM 8) CHORUS How great is your name, O Lord our God Through all the earth! VERSE 1 Your majesty is praised above the heaven; on the lips of children and of babes you have found praise to foil your enemy, to silence the foe and the rebel. VERSE 2 When I see the heavens, the work of your hands, the moon and the stars which you arranged, what is man that you should keep him in mind mortal man that you care for him? VERSE 3 Yet you have made him little less than a god; gave him power over the works of your hand, put all things under his feet. VERSE 4 All of them sheep and cattle, yes, even the savage beasts, birds of the air, and fish that make their way through the waters. VERSE 5 Give glory to the Father Almighty, to his Son, Jesus Christ, the Lord, to the Spirit who dwells in our hearts, both now and forever. Amen.
