Jehovah, God the Father, bless, And Thy own work defend! With mercy’s outstretched arms embrace And keep us to the end! Preserve the creatures of Thy love, By providential care Conducted to the realms above, To sing Thy goodness there. Jehovah, God the Son, reveal The brightness of Thy face; And all Thy pardoned people fill With plenitude of grace! Shine forth with all the Deity, Which dwells in Thee alone; And lift us up Thy face to see On Thy eternal throne. Jehovah, God the Spirit, shine, Father and Son to show! With bliss ineffable, divine, Our ravished hearts o’erflow. Sure earnest of that happiness Which human hope transcends, Be Thou our everlasting peace, When grace in glory ends! |
