Cong.
O what a pleasure 'tis to see
Christians in harmony agree,
To teach the rising race to know
They're born in sin, exposed to woe!
Chil.
O what a privilege is this,
That we obtain so rich a grace!
We're taught the path to endless day—
We're taught to read, to sing, and pray.
Chorus.
To God let highest praise be given;
Hark ! how the echo sounds from heaven:
Come, let us with the angels join—
Glory to God, good will to men.
Cong.
Lord, thou hast said, in sacred page,
That children are thy heritage:
Accept them, bless them with thy grace,
'Till they above behold thy face.
Chil.
Let blessings in abundance flow
On all around us here below ;
May we our benefactors meet,
Around Jehovah's blissful seat.
Chorus.
To God let highest praise be given;
Hark ! how the echo sounds from heaven:
Come, let us with the angels join—
Glory to God, good will to men.
