To Thee, O God, whose Fa­ther hand
Showers plen­ty o’er this smil­ing land,
And leads us through life’s de­vi­ous ways,
We bring to­day our song of praise.

For earth with all its glo­ri­ous things,
For life with all the joy it brings,
For bu­sy day, for qui­et night,
We thank Thee, Lord of life and light.

For teach­ers kind and class­mates dear,
That make the days so hap­py here,
For strength our play or tasks to do,
Dear Fa­ther, we would thank, Thee, too.

For home, where all life’s bless­ings meet,
For bro­thers true and sis­ters sweet,
For fa­ther’s care and mo­ther’s love,
We thank Thee, Lord of Heav’n above.

And now, through all the days to be,
O lead us, Fa­ther, ten­der­ly,
And guide our steps by day and night,
Still t’ward Thine ev­er­last­ing light.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him, all creatures here below,
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Fa­ther, Son and Holy Ghost.
