We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known;
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing,
Sing praises to His name: He forgets not his own.
Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine,
So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, wast at our side; all glory be Thine!
We all do extol thee, thou leader triumphant!
And pray that thou still our defender wilt be.
Let thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord make us free!
Amen.
Traditional Thanksgiving Hymn
