Hymn/Song Information

Now from the altar of our hearts Let warmest thank




Now from the altar of our hearts
Let warmest thanks arise;
Assist us, Lord, to offer up
Our evening sacrifice.


This day our God has been our sun,
Our keeper and our guide,
His arm around the weakness throws,
His angels at our side.


Moments and mercies multiplied
Have made up all the day;
Moments came fast, but mercies were
More swift and free than they.


New hours, new blessings, and new joys,
Do a new song require;
Till we can praise Thee as we should,
Accept our hearts' desire!


---Alternative verses---


This day God was our sun and shield,,
Our keeper and our guide,
His care was on our weakness shown,
His mercies multiplied.


Minutes and mercies multiply,
Have made up all this day;
Minutes came quick, but mercies were
More swift, more free than they.


Minutes and mercies multiplied,
Have made up all this day;
Minutes came quick, but mercies were
More swift, more free than they.


New time, new favours, and new joys.
Do a new song require;
Till we shall praise thee as we would,
More fleet and free than they.
