about

Composed by Oliver Holden (1765-1844). Words by William Cowper, ca. 1779.

Oliver Holden was a self-taught musician and a carpenter by trade. his most famous work, 'Coronation' ("All hail the power of Jesus' name") long ago became a staple of American congregational song.

lyrics

Forgive the song that falls so low,
Beneath the gratitude I owe.
It means Thy praise however poor,
An angel's song can do no more.

Great God, and wilt Thou condescend
To be my Father and my Friend.
I, a poor child, and thou, so high.
The Lord of earth, and air and sky.
