Poem Words (three verses)
1.
On what has now been sown
Your blessing, Lord, bestow;
The pow'r is yours alone
To make it sprout and grow.
O Lord, in grace the harvest raise,
And yours alone shall be the praise!
Your blessing, Lord, bestow;
The pow'r is yours alone
To make it sprout and grow.
O Lord, in grace the harvest raise,
And yours alone shall be the praise!
2.
To you our wants are known,
From you are all our pow'rs;
Accept what is your own
And pardon what is ours.
Our praises, Lord, and prayers receive
And to your Word a blessing give.
From you are all our pow'rs;
Accept what is your own
And pardon what is ours.
Our praises, Lord, and prayers receive
And to your Word a blessing give.
3.
Oh, grant that each of us,
Now met before Thee here,
May meet together thus
When you and yours appear,
And follow you to heav'n, our home.
E'en so, Amen! Lord Jesus, come!
Now met before Thee here,
May meet together thus
When you and yours appear,
And follow you to heav'n, our home.
E'en so, Amen! Lord Jesus, come!
