��JOHASN RiST (1007-1007).
Tr. Catheiune Wixkworth (1S29-1S78).
HELP US, Lord ! behold we enter Upon another year to-day ; In thee our hopes and thoughts now centre,
Renew our courage for the way : New life, new strength, new happiness, We ask of thee : oh hear, and bless !
��God, be with us and direct us ;
God, our plans and hopes inspire ; God, from thoughts of sin protect us
God, be all our heart's desire ; God, be in our thoughts each day Nor suffer us to fall away !
��And grant us, when the year is over, Its latest hour in peace may close ;
In all things care for us, and cover Our head in time of fear and woes !
So may we, when our years are gone,
Appear with joy before thy throne !
