LyicsGREAT God, our voice to thee we raise;
Tune thou our lips and hearts to praise,
Thy goodness to adore:
Our life, our health, and every friend,
From thee arise--on thee depend,
Kind Father of the poor!
Stretch o'er our heads thy guardian wings,
Secure the weak, O King of kings!
Our shield and refuge be:
Thy Spirit, Lord, conduct our days,
That we may walk in all thy ways,
And come at last to thee.
We thank thee for thy precious word,
And all thy mercies, gracious Lord,
Oh crown us with thy love.
Then joy shall tune our constant songs,
Till we shall join immortal tongues,
In nobler praise above.
