We Praise Thee, O God

We praise Thee

O God

Our Lord and our king

Accept Thou the praise

We grate­ful­ly bring;

Thanksgiving and wor­ship

We of­fer to Thee

Thou rul­er of nations

In whom we are free.

We praise Thee

O God

For Thy guid­ing hand

In lead­ing Thy church

To free­dom’s fair land;

Through sore per­se­cu­tion

Our fat­hers here came

Where free and un­fet­tered

They wor­shiped Thy name.

We praise Thee

O God

For years of in­crease

For faith un­as­sailed

Prosperity

peace;

United we of­fer

Our an­them of praise

To Thee

our sup­port­er

Our An­cient of Days.

We pray Thee

O Christ

Our Sav­ior and friend

From er­ror and strife

Thy Zi­on defend;

Breathe on us

we pray Thee

O Spir­it of love

And fit us for un­ion

With Thy Church above.
