Lyics

Now may he, who from the dead

Brought the Shepherd of the sheep,

Jesus Christ, our King and Head,

All our souls in safety keep!



May he teach us to fulfill

What is pleasing in his sight;

Perfect us in all his will,

And preserve us day and night.



Great Redeemer!  Thee we praise,

Who the covenant sealed with blood;

While our hearts and voices raise,

Loud thanksgiving unto God.
