Verse 1
Lord, Behold Us With Thy Blessing
Once Again Assembled Here;
Onward Be Our Footsteps Pressing
In Thy Love, And Faith, And Fear;
Still Protect Us
By Thy Presence Ever Near.
Verse 2
For Thy Mercy We Adore Thee,
For This Rest Upon Our Way;
Lord, Again We Bow Before Thee,
Speed Our Labors Day By Day;
Mind And Spirit
With Thy Choicest Gifts Array.
Verse 3
Keep The Spell Of Home Affection
Still Alive In Every Heart;
May Its Power, With Mild Direction,
Draw Our Love From Self Apart,
Till Thy Children
Feel That Thou Their Father Art.
Verse 4
Break Temptation’s Fatal Power,
Shielding All With Guardian Care,
Safe In Every Careless Hour,
Safe From Sloth And Sensual Snare;
Thou, Our Savior,
Still Our Failing Strength Repair.
