1.
D
We thank thee, O God, for a proph-et
A
To guide us in these lat-ter days.
D G
We thank thee for send - ing the gos-pel
D
To ligh-ten our minds with its rays.
A G D
We thank thee for ev-e-ry bles-sing
A
Be - stowed by thy boun-te-ous hand.
D A G D
We feel it a plea-sure to serve thee
A D
And love to o-bey thy com-mand.
2.
D
When dark clouds of trou-ble hang o’er us
A
And threat-en our peace to de-stroy,
D G
There is hope smil-ing bright-ly be-fore us,
D
And we know that de-liv-’rance is nigh.
A G D
We doubt not the Lord nor his good-ness.
A
We’ve proved him in days that are past.
D A G D
The wick-ed who fight against Zi-on
A D
Will sure-ly be smit-ten at last.
3.
D
We’ll sing of his good-ness and mer-cy.
A
We’ll praise him by day and by night,
D G
Re-joice in his glo - ri-ous gos-pel,
D
And bask in its life-giv-ing light.
A G D
Thus on to e-ter-nal per-fec-tion
A
The hon-est and faith-ful will go,
D A G D
While they who re-ject this glad mes-sage
A D
Shall nev-er such hap-pi-ness know.
