Heavenly Father, you promised

Through your Son Jesus to assist

Us, that when we meet in His name

You will come to us. you the same

 

The same Lord, who will, if we pray

According to His mind always

Be among us, and our prayers hear

Offered humbly with godly fear

 

In you love and wisdom fulfil

Our desires, and keep us from ill

God, us your greatest gift bestow

Which is you and your Son to know

 

Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord e\'er

Who is alive, does your reign share

With the Holy Spirit, God one

E\'en while eternal ages run
