<p>Thou gracious Power, whose mercy lends<br>
|
|
The light of home, the smile of friends,<br>
|
|
Our families in Thine arms enfold<br>
|
|
As in the peaceful days of old.</p>
|
|
<p>For all the blessings life has brought,<br>
|
|
For all its sorrowing hours have taught,<br>
|
|
For all we mourn, for all we keep,<br>
|
|
The hands we clasp, the loved that sleep.</p>
|
|
<p>The noontide sunshine of the past,<br>
|
|
These brief, bright moments fading fast,<br>
|
|
The stars that gild our darkening years,<br>
|
|
The twilight ray from holier spheres.</p>
|
|
<p>We thank Thee, Father; let Thy grace<br>
|
|
Our narrowing circle still embrace,<br>
|
|
Thy mercy shed its heavenly store,<br>
|
|
Thy peace be with us evermore.</p>
