<p>Here, Lord, we offer Thee all that is fairest,<br>
Bloom from the garden, and flowers from the field;<br>
Gifts for the stricken ones, knowing Thou carest<br>
More for the love than the wealth that we yield.</p>
<p>Send, Lord, by these to the sick and the dying,<br>
Speak to their hearts with a message of peace;<br>
Comfort the sad, who in weakness are lying,<br>
Grant the departing a gentle release.</p>
<p>Raise, Lord, to health those again who have sickened,<br>
Fair be their lives as the roses in bloom;<br>
Give of Thy grace to the souls Thou hast quickened,<br>
Gladness for sorrow, and brightness for gloom.</p>
<p>We, Lord, like flowers, must bloom and must wither;<br>
We, like these blooms, must fade and must die;<br>
Gather us, Lord, to Thy bosom forever,<br>
Grant us a place in Thy house in the sky.</p>
