M. F. Maude
THINE forever: God of love,
Hear us from Thy throne above;
Thine forever may we be,
Here and in eternity.
2
Thine forever: Lord of life
Shield us through our earthly strife;
Thou the Life, the Truth, the Way,
Guide us to the realms of day.
3
Thine forever: Oh, how blest
They who find in Thee their rest;
Saviour, Guardian, Heavenly Friend,
Oh, defend us to the end.
4
Thine forever: Saviour, keep
These Thy frail and trembling sheep;
Safe alone beneath Thy care,
Let us all Thy goodness share.
5
Thine forever: Thou our Guide,
All our wants by Thee supplied,
All our sins by Thee forgiven,
Lead us, Lord, from earth to heaven.
