Text:O Bless Us, Heavenly Father
Tune:[O bless us, heavenly Father]

5. O Bless Us, Heavenly Father

1 O bless us, heavenly Father,
While once again we meet
To seek thy heavenly wisdom,
And bow before thy feet.

Chorus:
O hear us! O hear us!
And give us light divine,
With every needed blessing,
That we may all be thine.

2 O grant us, while we ponder
The lessons of thy word,
That peace which passeth knowledge,
Of those that fear the Lord. [Chorus]

3 Accept, O heavenly Father,
Our prayers and praises too,
And may thy spirit guide us,
In all that we shall do. [Chorus]
