Lyics

Gracious Saviour, we adore thee;

Purchased by thy precious blood

We present ourselves before thee,

Now to walk the narrow road;

Saviour guide us --

Guide us to our heavenly home.



Thou didst mark our path of duty;

Thou wast laid beneath the wave;

Thou didst rise in glorious beauty,

From the semblance of the grave;

May we follow 

In the same delightful way.
