Lyrics

While la­bor­ing here, dear Sav­ior, be near
And keep us by day and night;
O bless Thou us all what­ev­er befall,
And ten­der­ly guide us aright!

Refrain

O help us each day, our Sav­ior, we pray,
Thou know­est we’re weak and tempt­ed to roam;
O guide us aright, Thou glo­ri­ous light,
And crown us in Heav’n, Thy home!

Hosannas we sing, to Je­sus, our king,
Who died on the cross to save
From sin and its woes, His friends and His foes,
O con­quer­or of death and the grave!

Refrain

O Fa­ther of might, now guide us aright,
And keep us from sin al­way;
When life here is done, thro’ faith in Thy Son,
Receive us to glo­ry for aye!
