LyicsNow from the altar of our hearts
Let flames of love arise;
Assist us, Lord, to offer up
Our evening 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 hearts desire.
Lord of our days, whose hand hath set
New time upon the score;
Thee may we praise for all our time,
When time shall be no more.
