Praise for Thee Lord in Zion waitsA
Prayer shall besiege Thy temple gatesA
All flesh shall to Thy throne repairB
And find through Christ salvation thereB
-
Our spirits faint our sins prevailC
Leave not our trembling hearts to failC
O Thou that hearest prayer descendD
And still be found the sinner s friendD
-
How blest Thy saints how safely ledE
How surely kept how richly fedE
Savior of all in earth and seaF
How happy they who rest in TheeF
-
Thy hand sets fast the mighty hillsG
Thy voice the troubled ocean stillsG
Evening and morning hymn Thy praiseH
And earthy Thou bounty wide displaysH
-
The year is with Thy goodness crownedI
Thy clouds drop wealth the world aroundI
Through Thee the deserts laugh and singJ
And nature smiles and owns her KingJ
-
Lord on our souls Thy Spirit pourK
The moral waste within restoreK
O let Thy love our springtide beF
And make us all bear fruit to TheeF
