248. Thine forever! God of love

1 Thine forever! God of Love,
Hear us from Thy throne above;
Thine forever may we be
Here and in eternity!

2 Thine forever! O how blest
They who find in Thee their rest!
Saviour, Guardian, heavenly Friend,
O defend us to the end!

3 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!

4 Thine forever! Thou our guide,
All our wants by Thee supplied,
All our sins by Thee forgiven;
Led by Thee from earth to heaven.

Amen.
