Lyics

THY kingdom, gracious Lord,

Shall never pass away;

Firm as Thy truth it still shall stand,

When earthly thrones decay.



Thy people here have found,

Through many weary years,

The sweet communion, joy, and peace,

To banish all their fears.



And now, while in Thy courts,

Do Thou our love increase;

Give us the food our spirits need,

And fill our hearts with peace.
