Song of Praise

Verse 1

Father, thy children to thee now raise Glad, grateful songs for thy love and grace, For thy protecting and watchful care Over thy Saints dwelling far and near; Grateful to thee for the gospel light, Which with its truth fills us with delight, Glad that we’ve chosen the better part. Songs of delight fill each grateful heart.

Verse 2

Oh, may our songs to thy courts ascend; Pleasing to thee may our voices blend. Lead us as thou hast the faithful led; Feed us with knowledge and daily bread. Let us not stray from the paths of truth; Forgive the folly and faults of youth. Father, accept thou the songs of praise Which from our hearts unto thee we raise.
