Lyrics

Blessèd Savior, while we gather
In Thy precious name,
Help us all to lift our voices
In the glad acclaim.

Refrain

Thou alone are good and holy,
There is none like Thee;
Now and evermore exalted,
Lord, Thy name shalt be.

Thro’ another week departed
Thou hast been our stay;
We have shared Thy gifts and mercies,
New with every day;

Refrain

Thou hast led us, kindly led us,
From our infant years,
Healing all our pains and sorrows,
Calming all our fears.

Refrain

Blessèd Savior, keep, O keep us,
In Thy fold divine;
May Thy beams of love so tender
Round our pathway shine.
