O Thou Al­migh­ty God,
Creator of us all;
Help us to praise and mag­ni­fy
Thy holy name o’er all.

O Thou Al­migh­ty God,
Thy mer­cy we im­plore;
Keep us with­in Thy ten­der care,
And plen­te­ous joys be­stow.

O, lead us on, dear Lord,
Our hand still clasped in Thine,
Until we reach the pear­ly shores
Of Heav’n’s abode di­vine.

O then what hap­pi­ness
Awaits the Chris­tian there;
No more life’s bit­ter woes to share
In glo­ry-land so fair.
