(First Tune)

DARWALL'S 148th. (6 6. 6 6. 8 8.) 𝅗𝅥 = 96. John Darwall (1731-1789).

Richard Baxter (1615-1691) and

YE holy Angels bright,
Who wait at God's right hand,
Or through the realms of light
Fly at your Lord's command,
  Assist our song,
   For else the theme
   Too high doth seem
  For mortal tongue.

Ye blessed souls at rest,
Who ran this earthly race,
And now, from sin released,
Behold the Saviour's face,
  God's praises sound,
   As in his light
   With sweet delight
  Ye do abound.
