Representative Text

1 O Jesus Christ, Thy grace us lend,
Thy Holy Spirit to us send.
Lift up our hearts, hear us, we pray,
And lead us in life's narrow way!

2 Help us, o Lord, Thy name to praise.
On us bestow Thy power and grace,
Increase our faith, give us Thy light
To hear and keep Thy Word aright!

3 Till we in heaven with one accord,
Sing "Holy, holy, holy Lord."
And there in glory Thee behold,
Revealed 'mid angel hosts untold.

4 Praise to the Father and the Son,
And to the Spirit, Three in One.
Yea, to the Holy Trinity
Be praise throughout eternity!
