Text:"Thine for ever"

1012. "Thine for ever"

1 Thine for ever! God of love,
Hear us from thy throne above!
Thine for ever may we be,
Here and in eternity!

2 Thine for ever! oh, how blest
They who find in thee their rest!
Saviour, Guardian, heavenly Friend,
Oh, defend us to the end!

3 Thine for ever! Saviour keep
These thy frail and trembling sheep;
Safe alone beneath thy care,
Let us all thy goodness share.

4 Thine for ever! thou our Guide,--
All our wants by thee supplied,--
All our sins by thee forgiven,--
Lead us, Lord, from earth to heaven!
