Verse 1
Sing to the Lord by whom we live,
From whom our blessings spring,
Who doth to us salvation give,
And vict’ry to our king.

Verse 2
Thee, Conqueror of our foes we greet,
Thee, Lord of hosts proclaim,
And cast our laurels at thy feet,
And tremble at thy name.

Verse 3
With lowly reverential joy
Thy mercy we embrace,
This solemn interval employ
In ceaseless prayer and praise.

Verse 4
Whate’er these threatning wars portend,
Whate’er thy will decrees,
Our souls that on thy love depend
Are kept in perfect peace.

Verse 5
Our loving confidence is sure,
Our Guardian-Rock stands fast,
Under its shade we dwell secure,
’Till every storm is past.

Verse 6
Who rest beneath th’ Almighty’s wings,
May cast their cares away:
Whate’er event tomorrow brings,
We live for God to-day.
