Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: Together in Song #452 (1999) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: Together in Song Lyrics: 1 God of mercy, God of grace,
show the brightness of your face;
shine upon us, Saviour, shine,
fill your church with light divine;
and your saving health extend
unto earth's remotest end.
2 Let the people praise you, Lord!
be by all that live adored;
let the nations shout and sing
glory to their Saviour king;
at your feet their tribute pay,
and your holy will obey.
3 Let the people praise you, Lord!
earth shall then its fruits afford;
God to us his blessing give,
we to God devoted live:
all below, and all above,
one in joy and light and love.
