Author: Gregory the Great (540-604); Rev. Percy Dearmer Hymnal: The Hymnal #A86 (1950) Hymnal Title: The Hymnal First Line: Father, we praise Thee, now the night is over Lyrics: 1 Father, we praise Thee, now the night is over,
Active and watchful, stand we all before Thee;
Singing, we offer prayer and meditation:
Thus we adore Thee.
2 Monarch of all things, fit us for Thy mansions;
Banish our weakness, health and wholeness sending;
Bring us to heaven, where Thy saints united
Joy without ending.
3 All holy Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
Trinity blessed, send us Thy salvation;
Thine is the glory, gleaming and resounding
Through all creation.
