The following is the Orphans' Hymn of
Thanksgiving
.




O God! our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be thou our guide while life shall last,
And our perpetual home.

So shall our souls, with holy joy,
Thy lofty praises sing,
'Mong saints and holy angels bright,
Till Heaven's high arches ring.

Saying, worthy is the Lamb of God,
To be exalted thus;
Worthy the Lamb, our lips reply,
Who hast redeemed us.
