Lyics

LORD, we adore thy conq'ring grace,

Which crowns the gospel with success,

Subjecting rebels to thy yoke,

And bringing to the fold thy flock.



May those who have thy truth confess'd,

As their own faith, and hope, and rest,

From day to day still more increase

In faith, in love, in holiness!



As living members may they share

The joys and griefs which others bear,

And active in their stations prove,

In all the offices of love.



From all temptations now defend,

And keep them steadfast to the end;

While in thy house they still improve,

Until they join the church above!
