O gracious Father, God of love,
We own Thy power to save,
That power by which
the Shepherd rose
Victorious o'er the grave.
Him from the dead
Thou brought'st again,
When, by His precious blood
Confirmed and sealed
for evermore,
The eternal covenant stood.
O may Thy Spirit
guide our souls,
And mould them to Thy will,
That from Thy paths
we ne'er may stray,
But keep Thy precepts still!
That to the Saviour's stature full
We nearer still may rise,
And all we think, or say, or do,
Be pleasing in Thine eyes.
