Jehovah, God the Father, Bless

Jehovah

God the Fa­ther

bless

And Thy own work de­fend!

With mer­cy’s out­stretched arms em­brace

And keep us to the end!

Preserve the crea­tures of Thy love

By pro­vi­den­tial care

Conducted to the realms ab­ove

To sing Thy good­ness there.

Jehovah

God the Son

re­veal

The bright­ness of Thy face;

And all Thy par­doned peo­ple fill

With ple­ni­tude of grace!

Shine forth with all the De­ity

Which dwells in Thee alone;

And lift us up Thy face to see

On Thy eter­nal throne.

Jehovah

God the Spir­it

shine

Father and Son to show!

With bliss in­eff­able

di­vine

Our ra­vished hearts o’er­flow.

Sure ear­nest of that hap­pi­ness

Which hu­man hope trans­cends

Be Thou our ev­er­last­ing peace

When grace in glo­ry ends!
