Representative Text

1 Hear me, Saviour, while I pray
On this holy Sabbath day;
Bless me as Thou didst of old
Bless the lambs of Israel’s fold.

2 Hold my hand within Thine own,
That I may not walk alone;
Guide my footsteps lest they stray
Into sin’s dark desert way.

3 Bless mine eyes that they may see
Light and life alone in Thee;
Bless my heart that it may find
Joys of an immortal kind.

4 Bless my soul with faith and love,
Leading to Thy courts above,—
There to praise Thy name on high,
While eternal years go by.
