56. Almighty Father, bless the word

1 Almighty Father, bless the word
Which through Thy grace we now have heard;
O may the precious seed take root,
Spring up, and bear abundant fruit.

2 We praise Thee for the means of grace,
As in Thy courts we seek Thy face,
Grant, Lord, that we who worship here
May all, at last, in heaven appear.
