songs of sinful man?

and wilt hear us?
Yea, we can.

o'er each work of thine;
thou didst ears and hands and voices
for thy praise design;

for thy pleasure
all combine.

of thine own to thee;
and for thine acceptance proffer
all unworthily
hearts and minds and hands and voices
in our choicest
psalmody.

render thee. Topics: Proper 15 Year B; Dedication Festival; St. Michael and All Angels Used With Tune: ANGEL VOICES

pray that we may be forgiven,

and the world is wrapped in fear,
with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.

borne witness to the truth in every tongue,
