Eternal God, in whom we live—
From whom all blessings we receive,
Ourselves and ours we owe to thee,
And thine we would forever be.
To thee our infant babe we bring
As a most cheerful offering;
Accept him, Lord, as henceforth thine,
While we our right to thee resign.
Lord, in that cov'nant which we share.
O may he have his interest there ;
And to the outward seal here given,
Do thou annex his seal in heaven.
Now let the whole assembly here,
Find thee, the God of Israel, near;
Thy choicest blessings, Lord, impart
And cheer and quicken ev'ry heart.
