We deck Your altar, Lord, with light, In solemn worship meeting: And as the year's last hours go by, We raise to You our earnest cry, Once more Your love entreating. 2 Before the cross subdued we bow, To You our prayers addressing, Recounting all Your mercies now, And all our sins confessing; Beseeching You this coming year To keep us in Your faith and fear And crown us with Your blessing. 3 We gather up in this brief hour The mem'ry of Your mercies: Your wondrous goodness, love, and pow'r Our grateful song rehearses: For You have been our strength and stay In many a dark and dreary day Of sorrow and reverses. 4 [Protected by copyright] 5 Then, gracious God, in years to come, We pray Your hand may guide us, And, onward through our journey home, Your mercy walk beside us Until at last our ransomed life Is safe from peril, toil, and strife When heav'n itself shall hide us.
