( 6 ) That glorious beauty it doth ſhine,

In heaven, about the throne,

The brightneſs of that glory there

Proceeds from thee alone.

By thee the heavenly palaces

Were beautified of old ;

By Thee the New Jeruſalem

Looks like tranſparent gold.

O glory, glory, ev'ry where,

There many glories be ;

Of all the glory that is there,

The glory ſure is he.

The ſun and moon ſhall dark'ned be ;

The ſtars ſhall ceaſe to ſhine :

All other glories dark'ned be ;

None laſting is but thine.

O happy they for ever more,

That may ſtand by and ſee

The glories of thy countenance

Unto eternity,

Thy name is rightly wonderful,

All wonders in thee be;

Yea only wonderful thou art,

All wonders are in thee,

While I at greater diſtance ſtand,

And farther am from thee

The favour of thy name alone

Is pleaſant unto me.
