Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Ambrose M. Schmidt, 1857.
Music: "Hanover," William Croft, 1780
We praise Thee, O God, our Lord and our King,
Accept Thou the praise we gratefully bring;
Thanksgiving and worship we offer to Thee,
Thou Ruler of nations, in Whom we are free.
We praise Thee, O God, for Thy guiding hand,
In leading Thy church to freedom's fair land;
Through sore persecution our fathers here came,
Where free and unfettered they worshipped Thy Name.
We praise Thee, O God, for years of increase,
For faith unassailed, prosperity, peace;
United we offer our anthem of praise,
To Thee, our Supporter, our Ancient of Days.
We pray Thee, O Christ, our Savior and Friend,
From error and strife Thy Zion defend;
Breathe on us, we pray Thee, O Spirit of love,
And fit us for union with Thy church above.
