Emmanuel Choir - My Most Gracious King

O that my heart could hit upon a strain
Would strike the music of my soul's desire
Or that my soul could find that sacred vein
That sets the consort of the angels' choir
Or that that Spirit of especial grace
That cannot stoop beneath the state of heaven
Within my soul would take his settled place
With angels' essence, to make his glory ev'n
Then should the name of my most gracious King
And glorious God, in higher tunes be sounded
Of heavenly praise, that earth hath power to sing
Where heaven and earth and angels confounded
And souls may sing while all heart strings are broken
His praise is more than in praise be spoken
