LyicsNOW from the altar of our hearts
Let flames of love arise;
Assist us, Lord, to offer up
Our ev'ning sacrifice.
Minutes and mercies multiplied
Have made up all this day;
Minutes came quick, but mercies were
More swift and free than they.
New time, new favor, and new joys,
Do a new song require;
Till we shall praise thee as we would,
Accept our heart's desire.
