11107. Source Of All Blessedness

1 Lord God of holiness, source of all blessedness,
Direct our ways. O may Thy mercy flow,
Thro’ all the earth below, and every good bestow,
Thro’ all our days.

2 Thou dost all nations prove, by Thy blest Word they move,
Thy Word and love; O shed Thy holy light,
Around our pathway bright, and lead us ever right,
O Lord above.

3 All fountains from Thee flow, the sunbeams dost bestow,
The increase give; then may our land be blest,
With Thy rich bounties’ best, and with Thy heav’nly rest,
In whom we live.

4 Now may our hearts rejoice, and with united voice,
Thy praises sing. O may sweet anthems ring,
From all the nations spring, to Thee all glory bring,
Jehovah King.
