12. 7s M.

1 Now may he who from the dead
Brought the Shepherd of the sheep,
Jesus Christ, our king and head,
All our souls in safety keep!

2 May he teach us to fulfil
What is pleasing in his sight,
Perfect us in all his will,
And preserve us day and night!

13. 8 & 7s M.

I MAY the grace of Christ our Saviour,
And the Father's boundless love,
With the Holy Spirit's favour,
Rest upon us from above!

2 Thus may we abide in union

With each other and the Lord, And possess, in sweet communion Joys which earth cannot afford!

14. H. M.

GLORY to God on high!
Forever bless his name;
Let earth, and seas, and sky
His wondrous love proclaim.

To him be praise

By all on earth

(508)

And glory given
And all in heaven.
