LyicsWhile the ceaseless course the sun
Hasted through the for-mer year,
Spared to see a-no-ther year,
Come, thy precious work re-vive;
Ma-ny souls their race have run,
Never more to meet us here;
Let thy blessing meet us here,
Bid thy drooping garden thrive:
Fixed in an e-ter-nal state,
They have done with all be-low;
Sun of Righteous-ness, a-rise!
Let our prayer thy pi-ty move;
We a lit-tle long-er wait,
But how little none can know.
Warm our hearts and bless our eyes,
Make this year a time of love.
