THE year is gone beyond recall, With all its bright and gladdening smiles, Thy thankful people praise Thee, Lord, To Thee we come, O gracious Lord, Forgive this nation's many sins, O Father, let Thy watchful eye, That we may praise Thee, year by year, All glory to the Father be, All glory to the Son, All glory, Holy Ghost, to Thee, 349. Amen. S. M. TO-MORROW, Lord, is Thine, And if its sun arise and shine, The present moment flies O make Thy servants truly wise Since on this winged hour Waken by Thy Almighty power, One thing demands our care: To Jesus may we fly, Swift as the morning light, Lest life's young golden beams should die In sudden endless night. Amen. 350. 8-7, 8-7, 4-7. LORD, dismiss us with Thy blessing, Travelling through this wilderness. Thanks we give and adoration With us evermore be found. So whene'er the signal's given Reign with Christ in endless day! To the Father throned in heaven, Praise Him! praise Him! FROM all that dwell below the skies Eternal are Thy mercies, Lord, Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore 352. Amen. 8-7. MAY the grace of Christ our Saviour, With the Holy Spirit's favour, Rest upon us from above. Thus may we abide in union With each other and the Lord, And possess, in sweet communion, Joys which earth cannot afford. Amen. All praise to Thee, my God, this night.. 148 Almighty God, Thy word is cast. 47 Angels from the realms of glory 33 Another day is past and gone Approach, my soul, the mercy seat. 147 254 41 306 274 145 58 41 |
