O Thou whose love
has brought us here,
Our Lord and King,
Within these walls, so dear to us,
Thy praise shall ring.
To-day, with joy
and peace and hope,
Thy people sing.
With joy we meet
the friends we love,
Before Thy throne,
Our voices raised with one accord
Thy name to own;
Whilst those we miss
are still Thy care,
Nor are alone.
The peace which lifts
us near to Thee
Is ours to-day;
The sacred calm of trustful faith
Drives care away;
That Thou wilt free from every fear.
Thy servants pray.
With hope we face
the paths untrod
Which none can see;
For Thou wilt guide
our stumbling feet
And near us be;
May each year’s service find us still
Nearer to Thee.
