 We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator,

In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;

We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee,

We bless Thy holy Name, glad praises we sing. 

We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;

Through life's storms and tempest our Guide have Thou been;

When perils overtake us, escape Thou will make us,

And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win. 

With voices united our praises we offer,

To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.

Thy strong arms will guide us, our God is beside us,

To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praised. 

Thy love didst show us, Thine only Son sending,

Who came as a babe and whose bed was a stall,

His blest life He gave us and then died to save us;

We praise Thee, O Lord, for Thy gift to us all.
