Hymnal: Selection of Hymns for the Sunday School Union of the Methodist Episcopal Church #251 (1836) Lyrics: 1 On this our festal day,We in thy courts appear,—To thee our grateful vows to pay,O Thou! whom angels fear.2 And wilt thou condescendTo own our sacrifice,And let the waiting heavens bendTo lift it to the skies.3 Taught by thy word of truth,That children came to thee,—We come, a company of youth,Before thy majesty.4 Lord, we have ever beenThe children of thy care;And as a father we have seenThat thou dost with us bear.5 Thou we have often err'd,And fear we grieve thee much,We learn from thy most holy wordThat thou dost pity such.6 O! through the present year,While we instruction gain,My it by all we do, appearThat it is not in vain.
On this our festal day
