CGS Lyrics
Verse 1
Almighty God, grant that Thy praise
All our voices employ
Thy hands has made the days go by
Another year has come.
Verse 2
Our sacrifice rise up to Thee
Father of all goodness
For Thy mercy, from year to year
That flows from Thy bosom.
Verse 3
In all the changing scenes of life
May Thy mercy endure
As much goodness to us
So let our praises be.
Verse 4
In all the changing scenes of life
We feel Thy anxious care
Let that same mercy, Lord we plead
Bless the new year begun.
Verse 5
And if Thou gives joy, may that joy
Draw us closer to Thee;
And if suffering, then we shall sing
As long as Thou bless us.
