<p>We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator,<br>
|
|
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;<br>
|
|
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee,<br>
|
|
We bless Thy holy Name, glad praises we sing.</p>
|
|
<p>We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;<br>
|
|
Through life’s storm and tempest our guide have Thou been;<br>
|
|
When perils overtake us, escape Thou will make us,<br>
|
|
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.</p>
|
|
<p>With voices united our praises we offer,<br>
|
|
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.<br>
|
|
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,<br>
|
|
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.</p>

<p>Thy love Thou didst show us, Thine only Son sending,<br>

Who came as a Babe and Whose bed was a stall,<br>

His blest life He gave us and then died to save us;<br>
|

We praise Thee, O Lord, for Thy gift to us all.</p>
