Author: Mrs. S. K. Bourne Hymnal: Gloria Deo #611 (1901) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: Gloria Deo Lyrics: 1 Once more to Thee, O Lord,
A family we come,
As from our varied work abroad
The ev’ning calls us home;
Lord, lift from ev’ry heart
The load of anxious care,
While drawing from the world apart,
We join in fervent pray’r.
2 O let Thy love and pow’r
Our ev’ry thought control,
And at this holy evening hour
Draw heavenward each soul!
The lives which Thou dost spare
Belong, O Lord, to Thee;
O may we own a Father’s care
And loving children be! Topics: Vesper Languages: English Tune Title: GUINDON
Once More to Thee, O Lord
