Lyrics

Savior, send a bless­ing to us,
Send a bless­ing from above;
All Thy truth and mer­cy show us,
Be Thou here in pow­er and love;
Grant Thy pre­sence,
Be it ours Thy grace to prove.

Nothing have we, Lord, with­out Thee,
But Thy pro­mise is our stay;
And Thy peo­ple must not doubt Thee;
Savior, now Thy pow­er dis­play;
And let glad­ness
Fill Thy peo­ple’s hearts to­day.
