Here may thy word melodious sound, And spread the joys of heav'n around. 4 Here may th'attentive throng Imbibe thy truth and love; And converts join the song Of Seraphim above: And willing crowds surround thy board, With sacred joy and sweet accord. 5 In peace, here may our sons And daughters sound thy praise; And shine like polish'd stones, Through long succeeding days.

Death cannot touch those in his hand, nor famine conquer in the land; we wait upon the LORD. In God our hope is firm and sure, who makes the joyful heart secure, our helper strong and true. Our trust is in your holy name; your mercy, LORD, in faith we claim, as we have hoped in you. Scripture: Psalm 33 Used With Tune: GENEVAN 68 Text Sources: Psalter Hymnal, 1934 (St. 1)
