Representative Text

1 Father Almighty, grant us now thy blessing,
Answer Thy children's earnest supplication;
Hear our petitions, spoken and unspoken;
Hear us, our Father.

2 Shepherd of souls, who bringest all who seek Thee
To pleasant pastures, near the peaceful waters.
Tenderly guide us in the ways of duty,
Lead us, good Shepherd.

3 Father of mercy, from Thy watch and keeping
Nothing can part us nor bring separation.
Give us Thy blessing, save us from all evil,
Infinite Spirit!

Amen.
