Embrace us thou,
O Lord, Divine;
whose we are, as
we art thine.

Keep us near Thee
Shepherd King;
to Thou, alone,
our praises ring.

'Neath Thy wings
our Peace, so bless't:
Jehovah Shalom,
cause splendid rest.

We seek no other
than, Thee, sweet Lord;
bathe us in
Thy Holy Word.

'Til all that threatens
our Faith in Thee;
be banished from
our destiny.

We lift our hearts
with naught between;
in times of plenty
times of lean.

To praise and worship,
Lord, Thee, alone;
making Thy glorious
redemption ever known.

In Thee we live
each night and day;
O, keep us always,
Sweet Lord, we pray!
