Raise high the note of exultation To God’s bright throne with voices clear; The mighty Lord of all Creation Lends to our song a Father’s ear; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | O’er each event of life presiding, May God rich gifts on both bestow, With heavenly light your footsteps guiding, As through the world’s dark wild ye go; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | By God’s own word each action measure, Let Christ your great exemplar be; Still fix your hearts on heavenly treasure, We hasten towards eternity; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | Together bend, God’s grace imploring, Or no true joy your love will know; Your voices blend, his name adoring, Till love to God each heart o’erflow; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | With cheerful faith in God confide ye, The pilgrim’s staff with courage take, And, till the silent grave divide ye, God and each other ne’er forsake; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | May peace and love, your lives adorning, Attend you all your course along; Your Christian walk, each night and morning, Oh! strengthen still with prayer and song; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | Together now your voices raising, Vow truth to God, hand join’d in hand, Till, on his glories ever gazing, Ye meet in heaven’s own happy land; Eternal Lord of heaven above, Look down and bless their plighted love. | |
