947. O God of love, to thee we bow

1 O God of love, to thee we bow,
And pray for these before thee now,
That, closely knit in holy vow,
They may in thee be one.

2 When days are filled with pure delight,
When paths are plain and skies are bright,
Walking by faith and not by sight,
May they in thee be one.

3 When stormy winds fulfil thy will,
And all their good seems turned to ill,
Then, trusting thee completely, still
May they in thee be one.

4 Whate’er in life shall be their share
Of quickening joy or burdening care,
In power to do and grace to bear,
May they in thee be one.
