HYMN 71.

Lord of Heav'n and earth and ocean,
Hear us from Thy bright abode;
While our hearts, with deep devotion
Own their great and gracious God:
Now with joy we come before Thee,
Seek Thy face, Thy mercies sing;
Lord of life, and light, and glory,
Guard Toy Church, and guide our Queen.

Health and ev'ry needful blessing
Are Thy bounteous gifts alone;
Comforts undeserv'd possessing,
Here we bend before Thy Throne:
Young and old do now before Thee
Their united tribute bring;
Lord of life, and light, and glory,
Shield our Isle, and save our Queen.

Thee, with humble adoration,
Lord, we praise for mercies past;
Still to this most favour'd nation
May those mercies ever last;
Britons, then, shall still before Thee
Songs of ceaseless praises sing;
Lord of life, and light, and glory,
Bless Thy people, bless our Queen.
