356. O Lord, Our Hearts Would Give Thee Praise

1 O Lord, our hearts would give Thee praise,
Ere now our school we end,
For this Thy Day, the best of days,
Jesus, the children's Friend.

2 Lord, graft Thy Word in ev'ry heart,
Our souls from sin defend,
That we from Thee may ne'er depart,
Jesus, the children's Friend.

Lord, bless our homes and give us grace
Thy Sabbaths so to spend,
That we in heav'n may find a place
With Thee, the children's Friend.
