We praise and bless Thee,
gracious Lord,
Our Saviour, kind and true,
For all the old things passed away,
For all Thou has made new.
New hopes, new purposes, desires,
And joys, Thy grace has given;
Old ties are broken from the earth,
New ties attach to heaven.
But, yet, how much
must be destroyed,
How much renewed must be,
Ere we can fully stand complete
In likeness, Lord, to Thee!
Thou, only Thou, must carry on
The work Thou hast begun;
Of Thine own strength,
Thou must impart,
In Thine own ways to run.
So shall we faultless stand at last
Before Thy Father’s throne;
The blessedness for ever ours,
The glory all Thine own!
