Lord of power, Lord of might;
God and Father of us all;
Lord of day, and Lord of night,
Listen to our solemn call:
Listen, whilst to Thee we raise
Songs of prayer, and songs of praise.
Light, and love, and life are Thine,
Great Creator of all good;
Fill our souls with light divine:
Give us with our daily food
Blessings from Thy heavenly store,
Blessings rich forevermore.
Graft within our heart of hearts
Love undying for Thy Name;
Bid us ere the day departs
Spread afar our Maker’s fame;
Young and old together bless,
Clothe our souls with righteousness.
Full of years and full of peace,
May our life on earth be blest;
When our trials here shall cease,
And at last we sink to rest,
Fountain of eternal love,
Call us to our home above.
