Lyics

GRACIOUS Lord, this morn we'll praise thee,

For the bliss thy love bestows:

For the pardoning grace that saves us,

And the peace which from it flows.

Help, O Lord our weak endeavour;

These poor hearts to rapture raise,

So that hence we may for ever

Render to thee equal praise.



Praise this day to God who sought us,

Wretched wanderers far astray;

Found us lost and kindly brought us

From the paths of sin away.

Praise him with devoutest feeling,

Him who saw our guilty fear,

And the light of life revealing,

Bade the blood-stained cross appear.



HALLELUJAH.

Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!

Bade the blood-stained cross appear.
