O

By God's almighty hand; He sends the snow in win-ter, The warmth to swell the grain,

Refrain.

The breezes and the sunshine, And soft refreshing rain.

All good gifts around us

His love.

2 He only is the Maker

Of all things near and far;
He paints the wayside flower,
He lights the evening star;
The winds and waves obey Him,
By Him the birds are fed;
Much more to us, His children,
He gives our daily bread.
All good gifts, etc.

3 We thank Thee, then, O Father,
For all things bright and good,
The seed-time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food:
No gifts have we to offer,

For all Thy love imparts,
But that which Thou desirest,
Our humble, thankful hearts.
All good gifts, etc.

Matthias Claudius, 1782.

Bid Thine angels shield us
When the storm-clouds lower,
Pardon, Lord, and save us

In the last dread hour. -REF.

4 Then with saints and angels
May we join above,
Offering prayers and praises
At Thy throne of love;
When the toil is over,

Then come rest and peace,
Jesus in His beauty,

Songs that never cease.-REF.

For our Saviour we shall see
Exalted on His throne.

In praising Christ, the Lord.

Worth-y is our Saviour King! Loud let His praises ring, Praise, praise for aye.

2 Come to this happy land,

Come, come away;

Why will ye doubting stand?

Why still delay?

O we shall happy be,

When, from sin and sorrow free,
Lord, we shall live with Thee,

Blest, blest for aye!

3 Bright, in that happy land,
Beams every eye;

Kept by a Father's hand,
Love cannot die

On then to glory run!

Be a crown and kingdom won;
And bright above the sun,

Reign, reign for aye.

Andrew Young, 1843.
