A Thanksgiving: Another

O Heavenly King, Look down from above,
Assist us to sing Thy mercy and love;
So sweetly o'erflowing, So plenteous the store,
Thou still art bestowing And giving us more.

O God of our life, We hallow Thy name;
Our business and strife Is Thee to proclaim;
Accept our thanksgiving For creating grace,
The living, the living Shall show forth Thy praise.

Our Father and Lord, Almighty art Thou;
Preserved by Thy word, We worship Thee now,
The bountiful Donor Of all we enjoy;
Our tongues to Thine honour And lives we employ.

But O, above all Thy kindness we praise,
From sin and from thrall Which saves the lost race;
Thy Son Thou hast given A world to redeem,
And bring us to heaven Whose trust is in Him.

Wherefore of Thy love We sing and rejoice,
With angels above We lift up our voice;
Thy love each believer Shall gladly adore,
For ever and ever, When time is no more.
