Father, let Thy benediction,
Gently falling as the dew,
And Thine ever gracious presence,
Bless us all our journey through.
|: May we ever, :|
Keep the work of life in view.
Few our years, we need the wisdom
Which can only come from Thee ;
In the morn of our existence
Let us Thy salvation see.
|: Meek in spirit, :|
Then shall we Thy children be.
When temptation shall assail us,
When we falter by the way,
Let Thine arm of strength defend us ;
Father, hear us when we pray.
|: Thou art mighty, :|
Be Thou, then, our rock and stay.
Praise and blessing, power and glory,
Will we render, Lord, to Thee;
For the news of Thy salvation
Shall extend from sea to sea.
|: All the nations :|
Joyfully shall worship Thee.
