Maker, in Whom We Live
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A Trinitarian hymn by Charles Wesley (1747) in which each stanza addresses a different person of the Trinity — Creator, Redeemer, and Spirit of Holiness — calling angels, the ransomed race, and all the saints to render praise and thanks.
Verse 1
Maker, in whom we live,
in whom we are and move,
the glory, power,
and praise receive,
for thy creating love.
Let all the angel
throng give thanks
to God on high,
while earth repeats
the joyful song
and echoes to the sky.
Verse 2
Incarnate Deity,
let all the ransomed race
render in thanks
their lives to thee
for thy redeeming grace.
The grace to
sinners showed
ye heavenly choirs proclaim,
and cry,
“Salvation to our God,
salvation to the Lamb!”
Verse 3
Spirit of Holiness,
let all thy saints adore
thy sacred energy,
and bless thine
heart-renewing power.
Not angel tongues can tell
thy love’s ecstatic height,
the glorious
joy unspeakable,
the beatific sight.
Verse 4
Eternal, Triune God,
let all the hosts above,
let all on earth below
record and dwell
upon thy love.
When heaven and
earth are fled
before thy glorious face,
sing all the saints
thy love hath made
thine everlasting praise.
