Installation of the Officers of a Grand Lodge

Hail! Masonry divine!Glory of ages shine;Long may'st thou reign!Where'er thy lodges stand,May they have great command,And always grace the land,Thou art divine.

Great fabrics still arise,And grace the azure skies—Great are thy schemes;Thy noble orders areMatchless beyond compare;No art with thee can share;Thou art divine.

Hiram, the architect,Did all the craft directHow they should build;Sol'mon, great Israel's king.Did mighty blessings bring.And left us room to sing,Hail, Royal Art!
