1 O precious Redeemer, we come in our need,
We come in our weakness Thy promise to plead;
Now grant our petition, and help us to be
More fervent in spirit, more faithful to Thee.

Refrain:
O Saviour, we come, Thy blessing to share,
Now hear our petition, Lord, answer our prayer.

2 We ask Thee, dear Saviour, to cleanse us anew,
We ask for Thy blessing on all that we do;
For faith like an anchor, abiding and sure,
For love that is perfect, and strong to endure. [Refrain]

3 Protect and defend us wherever we go;
And when we have finished our journey below,
We ask thro’ Thy merits, Thy mercy and love,
A place in Thy kingdom of glory above. [Refrain]
