1 Another Sabbath calls our feet
To worship at thy mercy-seat;
And in thy temple, Lord, appear,
To bless thee for a new-born year.
2 When the expiring year we view,
And recollect thy goodness through,
We feel constrained with one accord,
With all our powers to praise the Lord.
3 O gracious God, still condescend
To be our helper and our friend:
At our right-hand be ever near,
To guide us through the present year.
4 And if this year should be our last,
If that decree, great God, be past,
May we all safely reach that shore,
Where time and death are known no more.
