Yet Once Again

Yet once again

by God’s abun­dant mer­cy

We join our song of thank­ful­ness and praise;

Ever the light of our Re­deem­er’s vic­to­ry

Shineth be­fore us in the world’s dark ways.

Jesus shall con­quer

lift up the strain!

Evil shall per­ish and right­eous­ness shall reign.

O for the time of Christ’s com­plet­ed miss­ion!

Throbs of its rap­ture reach us as we pray;

Gleams of its glo­ry burst­ing on our vi­sion

Send us to la­bor

urge us on our way.

Stretch out Thy hand

O God

and let the na­tions

Feel through Thine host the thrill of life di­vine;

Grant us

we pray

still great­er re­ve­la­tions

Make of these days an ev­er­last­ing sign.
