O God, Great Father, Lord and King!
- O God, great Father, Lord and King!
Our children unto thee we bring;
and strong in faith and hope and love,
we dare thy steadfast Word to prove. - Thy cov’nant kindness did of old
our fathers and their seed enfold;
that ancient promise standeth sure,
and shall while heav’n and earth endure. - Look down upon us while we pray
and visit us in grace today;
these little ones thou didst receive,
thy precious promise we believe. - They now the outward sign receive;
wilt thou thy Holy Spirit give,
and keep and help them by thy pow’r
in ev’ry hard and trying hour. - Guide thou their feet in holy ways,
shine on them thro’ the darkest days;
uphold them ’til their life be past
and bring them all to heav’n at last.
