2-6s & 4-7s. The Lord's Prayer. 1 FATHER of earth and sky, Thy name we magnify: O that earth and heaven might join, Thy perfections to proclaim; Praise the attributes divine, Fear and love thy awful name!
2 When shall thy Spirit reign In every heart of man? Father, bring the kingdom near, Honour thy triumphant Son; God of heaven, on earth appear, Fix with us thy glorious throne.
3 Thy good and holy will Let all on earth fulfil; Men with minds angelic vie, Saints below with saints above, Thee to praise and glorify, Thee to serve with perfect love.
4 This day with this day's bread Thy hungry children feed; Fountain of all blessings, grant Now the manna from above; Now supply our bodies' want, Now sustain our souls with love.
5 Our trespasses forgive: And when absolved we live, Thou our life of grace maintain; Lest we from our God depart, Lose thy pardoning grace again, Grant us a forgiving heart.
6 In every fiery hour Display thy guardian power; Near in our temptation stay, With sufficient strength defend; Bring us through the evil day, Make us faithful to the end.
7 Father, by right divine Assert the kingdom thine; Jesus, Power of God, subdue Thy own universe to thee; Spirit of grace and glory too, Reign through all eternity.
