1074. Our children, Lord, in faith and prayer

1 Our children, Lord, in faith and prayer
We now devote to thee:
Let them thy covenant mercies share,
And thy salvation see.

2 In early days their hearts secure
From worldly snares, we pray;
And let them to the end endure
In every righteous way.

3 Grant us before them, Lord, to live
In holy faith and fear;
And then to heaven do thou receive,
And bring our children there.
