1  O God and Father, we our praises bring,

       For who more worthy of our praise could be

    Than Thou, who seekest worshipers who sing

       In spirit and in truth adoringly!

 2  All worlds Thou hast created by the Son,

       All things are held by His unmeasured power;

    Yet we approach Thee in that glorious One:

       What cause for worship in this holy hour!

 3  'Tis He who leads us in this blessed sphere,

       In the assembly singing praise to Thee;

    What joy to Him that we should thus be near

       As suited and in perfect liberty!

 4  Here we unite, our song of joy is one!

       And Thou, O God, art fully satisfied.

    Amidst the praises led by Christ, Thy Son,

       Thou hast a dwelling ever to abide.
