And may thy kingdom still advance, till grace to glory rise. 3 A grateful homage may we yield, with hearts resign’d to thee; And as in heav’n thy will is done, on earth so let it be.From day to day we humbly own the hand that feeds us still: Give us our bread, and teach to rest contented in thy will.Our sins before thee we confess; O may they be forgiv’n! As we to others mercy show, we mercy beg from Heav’n.Still let thy grace our life direct; from evil guard our way; And in temptation’s fatal path permit us not to stray. 7 For thine the pow’r, the kingdom thine; all glory’s due to thee: Thine from eternity they were, and thine shall ever be.
Let such as feel oppression’s load thy tender pity share: And let the helpless, homeless poor, be thy peculiar care.Go, bid the hungry orphan be with thy abundance blest; Invite the wand’rer to thy gate, and spread the couch of rest. 5 Let him who pines with piercing cold by thee be warm’d and clad; Be thine the blissful task to make the downcast mourner glad.
