Concluding Formal Prayers Series - 5

Tune: University College

('Oft in danger, oft in woe')

********

Guide us, Lord, in all we do

Come to us, and us renew

With your gracious favour sure

You our Shepherd evermore

 

Further us continually

With your help, that we agree

In you all our works begun

Continued, ended, and done (in you)

 

In those works we pray we may

Glorify your name alway

Your name holy does remain

By your mercy we attain

 

Attain life everlasting

Through Jesus Christ each good thing

He our Saviour, does atone

We His people, we His own
