Evangelical Lutheran hymnal ‎#3

3. Christ Jesus, Lord! to us attend

1 Christ Jesus, Lord! to us attend,
The Holy Spirit to us send,
With grace to rule us day by day,
And lead us on in wisdom's way.

2 Unseal our lips to sing Thy praise,
Our hearts in true devotion raise;
Our faith increase, and light bestow,
That we Thy name may truly know.

3 Until we join the hosts that cry:
Holy art Thou, O Lord most high!
And see Thy face, O Lord of might!
'Mid endless joy and blissful light.

4 Exalt the Father and the Son,
And Holy Spirit! Three in One--
To Thee, O Holy Trinity,
Eternal praise and glory be.
