Anniversary Day

Eliza E. Hewitt • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 90:14

Verse 1

Another year has glided by, Beneath our Father’s watchful eye; And in His courts, we meet to raise, An anniversary hymn of praise.

Chorus

Praise Him who sweetly crowns the year; Tell His goodness o’er and o’er; Praise Him, with heart and lip sincere Praise the Lord forevermore.

Verse 2

Though on the glow a shadow falls, A blessed promise faith recalls, For dear ones who have passed away, Since our last anniversary day.

Chorus

Praise Him who sweetly crowns the year; Tell His goodness o’er and o’er; Praise Him, with heart and lip sincere Praise the Lord forevermore.

Verse 3

May we, who still shall gather here, To Jesus lend a list’ning ear, And growing in His love each day, May we to others, show the way.

Chorus

Praise Him who sweetly crowns the year; Tell His goodness o’er and o’er; Praise Him, with heart and lip sincere Praise the Lord forevermore.

Verse 4

When life itself shall glide away, In Heav’n sweet everlasting day, May we, together swell the song, That rises from the white-robe throng.

Chorus

Praise Him who sweetly crowns the year; Tell His goodness o’er and o’er; Praise Him, with heart and lip sincere Praise the Lord forevermore.
