Father of all we bow to thee

Father of all! we bow to thee,

Who dwell’st in heav’n ador’d;

But present still through all thy works,

The universal Lord.

For ever hallow’d be thy name

By all beneath the skies;

And may thy kingdom still advance,

Till grace to glory rise.

 

A grateful homage may we yield

With hearts resign’d to thee;

And as in heav’n thy will is done,

On earth so let it be.

From day to day we humbly own

The hand that feeds us still:

Give us our bread, and teach to rest

Contented in thy will.

 

Our sins before thee we confess;

O may they be forgiven!

As we to others mercy show,

We mercy beg from Heav’n.

Still let thy grace our life direct;

From evil guard our way;

And in temptations fatal path

Permit us not to stray.

 

For thine the pow’r, the kingdom thine;

All glory’s due to thee:

Thine from eternity they were,

And thine shall ever be.
