Let thankfulness recall How God this year has led us, How he has clothed and fed us, The great ones and the small. 3 To church and state he granted His peace in ev'ry place; His vineyard he has planted Among us by his grace.

In Jesus' name we here, To you our prayers addressing, Still ask you for your blessing: Grant us a joyful year. Used With Tune: HELFT MIR GOTT'S GÜTE PREISEN

Now let us come before Him

Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: New Year Lyrics: 1 NOW let us come before Him, With songs and prayers adore Him, Who to our life from heaven All needed strength hath given. 2 The stream of years is flowing, And we are onward going, From old to new surviving, And by His mercy thriving. 3 In woe we often languish, And pass through times of anguish, Of wars and trepidation, Alarming every nation. 4 A faithful mother keepeth Guard, while her infant sleepeth, Its fear and grief assuaging, When angry storms are raging. 5 Thus God His children shieldeth And full protection yieldeth; When need and woe distress them, His loving arms caress them. 6 In vain is all our doing; The labor we're pursuing In our hands prospers never, Unless God watches ever. 7 Our song to Thee ascendeth, Whose mercy never endeth; Our thanks to Thee we render, Who art our strong Defender. 8 O God of mercy! hear us, Our Father! be Thou near us; 'Mid crosses and in sadness Be Thou our Fount of gladness. 9 To all that bow before Thee And for Thy grace implore Thee O grant Thy benediction And patience in affliction. 10 With richest blessings crown us, In all our ways, Lord! own us; Give grace, who grace bestowest To all, e'en to the lowest. 11 To all forlorn be Father, Thy erring children gather, And of the poor and needy Be Thou the Succor speedy. 12 Grant help to all afflicted; And to the souls dejected, By melancholy haunted, May cheerful thoughts be granted. 13 O Lord! assistance lend us, Thy holy Spirit send us, That He may make us glorious, And lead to Thee victorious. 14 All this Thy hand bestoweth, Thou Life, whence our life floweth; To me and all believers Grant, Lord, these New Year's favors.
