Composer: | D. Vetter |
1 O holy, blessed Trinity,
Divine, eternal Unity,
God, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Be Thou this day my guide and host.
2 My soul and body keep from harm,
O’er all I have extend Thine arm,
That Satan may not cause distress,
Nor bring me shame and wretchedness.
3 The Father’s love shield me this day,
The Son’s pure wisdom cheer my way,
The Holy Spirit’s light divine
Illume my heart’s benighted shrine.
4 My Maker, strengthen Thou my heart,
O my Redeemer, help impart,
Blest Comforter, keep at my side,
That faith and love in me abide.
5 Lord, bless and keep Thou me as Thine!
Lord, make Thy face upon me shine!
Lord, lift Thy countenance on me,
And give me peace--sweet peace from Thee.
