LyicsKEEP us, Lord, O keep us ever!
Vain our hope, if left by Thee;
We are Thine; O leave us never,
Till Thy glorious face we see!
Then to praise Thee
Through a bright eternity.
Precious is Thy word of promise,
Precious to Thy people here;
Never take Thy presence from us;
Jesus, Saviour, still be near;
Living, dying,
May Thy name our spirits cheer.
