Honor to God, my living Head
All honor to the Lamb;
His voice breathes life into the dead
And strength into the lame.

Jesus, in Thee my hopes remain,
In Thee I place my fears.
Thy love, Thy grace my soul sustains-
The knowledge thou art near!

O let my tongue  prepare a song
To worship God aright,
O let that joyful noise prolong
To win the well-fought fight.

O that mankind may come to know
The glories of my Lord,
And let His love within them grow
Supported by thy Word.

Abide with me fast falls the eventide.
  Henry F. Lyte

This reads like a beautiful hymn.  What a great piece of praise to our Lord you've penned.  Thank you for sharing.
