We bless Thee for
Thy will made known,
O Lord, from age to age;
Grateful that in Thy word we own
So rich a heritage.
As some sweet melody of old
To well-tuned harps is strung,
So here Thy mercy-thoughts are told
By seer’s and poet’s tongue.
But at the Saviour’s feet we learn
Thy vast, redeeming plan;
We call Thee Father, and discern
Thy depths of love to man.
Here shines a light
o’er all the way.
That mortal, with
ever-brightening ray,
Home by the cross to God.
Here would we find our
heavenward chart,
Our staff, when weak and lone,
Till we shall see Thee as Thou art,
And know as we are known.
