Boys.
Thee, Father, we praise,
In harmonious lays,
For all thy rich grace;
O give us the knowledge of pardon and peace;
On thee we rely,
All our wants to supply;
O keep us each hour,
From snares and temptations, by thy mighty power.
Girls.
O may we improve,
In knowledge and love,
Of Jesus our king,
'Till to glory we're brought, his praises to sing;
While below, if we stray,
From the source of true joy,
Let thy merciful hand
Return and incline us t' obey thy command.
Both.
Our friends, may they share
Thy blessings while here,
And crown them above;
Where joys will increase, from the fountain of love:
May we shortly there meet,
Around thy blest seat;
Thy love to adore,
Where pleasure and praise will abound evermore.
Hal.
