568. For All the Blessings of the Year

1 For all the blessings of the year,
For all the friends we hold so dear,
For peace on earth, both far and near,
We thank Thee, Lord.

2 For life and health, those common things,
Which every day and hour brings,
For home, where our affection clings,
We thank Thee, Lord.

3 For love of Thine which never tires,
Which all our better thought inspires,
And warms our lives with heav'nly fires,
We thank Thee, Lord.

Amen.
