Lyrics

Lord Jesus, honor, thanks and praise
Be to Thy goodness all our days.
Thy people in Thy grace rejoice,
In comfort they lift up their voice;
"Thou shalt remain in all eternity!"
Thus we repose in blest security.

In loving care stay by our side,
For none except Thee can provide.
Convert all who know not Thy name,
All evil workers put to shame!
And let the tempted feel Thy wondrous might,
That in the darkness they may see the light.

The raging wolves, Lord, from us keep;
A lion's courage give Thy sheep.
All those who foreign ways have learned
Be speedily to Thee returned.
So draw and bind us closely unto Thee,
Till in one flock we all united be.
