Text:"Turn us, O Lord!"
Author:Anon.

99. "Turn us, O Lord!"

1 Heavenly Father, grant thy blessing
On the teaching of this day;
That our hearts, thy fear possessing,
May from sin be turned away.

2 Have we wandered? oh, forgive us;
Have we wished from truth to rove?
Turn, oh, turn us, and receive us,
And incline us thee to love.
