casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;

All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth, and sky and sea;

holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty!

FINAL HYMN

Lead us, heav'nly Father, lead us o'er the world's tempestuous sea:

guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us, for we have no help but thee; yet possessing ev'ry blessing if our God our Father be.

Saviour, breathe forgiveness o'er us, all our weakness thou dost know,

thou didst tread this earth before us, thou didst feel its keenest woe;

lone and dreary, faint and weary, through the desert thou didst go.

Spirit of our God, descending, fill our hearts with heavenly joy,

love with every passion blending, pleasure that can never cloy;

thus provided, pardoned, guided, nothing can our peace destroy.
