MySongbooksThe Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.

[1]
Now to the Lord a noble song!
awake, my soul, awake, my tongue!
Hosanna to the etemal name,
and all his boundless love proclaim!
[2]
See where it shines in Jesus' face,
the brightest image of his grace:
God in the person of his Son
has all his mightiest works outdone.
[3]
The spacious earth, the oceans' flood,
proclaim the wise, the powerful God,
and thy rich glories from afar
sparkle in every rolling star.
[4]
But in his looks a glory stands,
the noblest labour of thy hands:
the pleasing lustre of his eyes
outshines the wonders of the skies.
[5]
Grace, 'tis a sweet, a charming theme;
my thoughts rejoice at Jesus' name.
ye angels, dwell upon the sound,
ye heavens, reflect it to the ground.
