Thou Lord of life, our saving Health

Verse 1

Thou Lord of life, our saving Health, Who mak'st Thy suffering ones our care, Our gifts are still our truest wealth, To serve Thee our sincerest prayer.

Verse 2

As on the river's rising tide Flow strength and coolness from the sea, So through the ways our hands provide May quickening life flow in from Thee.

Verse 3

To heal the wound, to still the pain, And strength to failing pulses bring, Till the lame feet shall leap again, And the parched lips with gladness sing.

Verse 4

Bless Thou the gifts our hands have brought: Bless Thou the work our hearts have planned: Ours is the hope, the will, the thought; The rest, O God, is in Thy hand.

Verse 5

Amen.
