  Our Rock with loving care, According to His word, Bids all His bounty share, Then let us bless the Lord. His flock our Shepherd feeds With graciousness divine, He satisfies our needs With gifts of bread and wine. Therefore with one accord We will His name adore, Proclaiming evermore None holy as the Lord. Our Rock, etc. The land desired so long, Our fathers' heritage, Inspires our grateful song To God from age to age; His bounteous gifts afford Us sustenance each day, His mercy is our stay, For faithful is the Lord. Our Rock, etc. Oh! be Thy mercy moved, Our Rock, to dwell with us, [pg 388]With Zion, Thy beloved, Our temple glorious. May we, redeemed, restored, Be led there every one, By David's holy son, The anointed of the Lord. Our Rock, etc. Thy city fill once more, Thy temple-walls upraise, There will we Thee adore With joyful songs of praise, Thee, merciful, adored, We bless and sanctify, With wine-cups filled up high, By blessings of the Lord. Our Rock, etc. Anon. |
