Sacred Hymns (Manchester Hymnal) (1840, 1912), no. 36
Our God, we raise to Thee

1. Our God, we raise to Thee Thanks for Thy blessings free We here enjoy; In this far western land, A true and chosen band, Let hither by Thy hand, We sing for joy.

2. Bless thou our Prophet dear; May health and comfort cheer His noble heart; His words with fire impress On souls that thou wilt bless; To choose in righteousness, The better part.

3. So shall Thy kingdom spread, As by Thy Prophet said, From sea to sea; As one united whole Truth burn in every soul, While hast’ning to the goal We long to see.

4. O may Thy Saints be one, Like Father and the Son, Nor disagree; United heart and hand, So may they ever stand, A firm and valiant band, Eternally.
