Text: | For Thy mercy and Thy grace |
Tune: | CHOPE |
1 For Thy mercy and Thy grace,
Faithful through another year,
Hear our song of thankfulness;
Father, and Redeemer, hear.
2 In our weakness and distress,
Rock of Strength, be Thou our Stay,
In the pathless wilderness
Be our true and living Way.
3 Who of us death's awful road,
In the coming year shall tread;
With Thy rod and staff, O God.
Comfort Thou his dying head.
4 Make us faithful, keep us pure,
Keep us evermore Thine own;
Help, O help us to endure;
Fit us for the promised crown.
5 So within Thy palace gate
We shall praise, on golden strings,
Thee, the only Potentate,
Lord of lords, and King of kings.
Amen.
