1. O Lord God, again we heard:
You allowed Your mighty Word;
Bend to us Your holy face;
Fill us with Your light and grace!
2. And abide with gifts You give
Then Your Peace with us shall live;
Give us each Your Spirit's grace
That we come to You apace.
3. We will praise Him yet again,
Christ the Living Great Amen!
He Salvation's light and crown,
Shepherd, Father, our renown!
