Father, Holy Fa­ther,
Now the sun has come,
Bringing light and glo­ry
From Thy heav’n­ly home.

We Thy lit­tle child­ren,
To Thy throne above,
We would hymn Thy prais­es,
We would sing Thy love.

Thou art wise and lov­ing,
Thou art great and strong;
Glad when we do right­ly,
Grieved when we do wrong.

Hear us, Holy Fa­ther,
As to Thee we pray,
Asking Thee to keep us
Safe from harm to­day.

Father, God, our Fa­ther,
Guide us ev­ery hour,
Keep us safe, and shield us
From temp­ta­tion’s pow­er.
