1. O thou kind and gracious Father,Reigning in the heav’ns above,Look on us, thy humble children;Fill us with thy holy love.Fill us with thy holy love.
2. We have met this Sabbath morning,Words of life and truth to hear.Teach us how to ever serve theeAnd thy holy name revere,And thy holy name revere.
