309. Benediction Upon the God-Fearing

1 The Lord Who has remembered us
His blessing will bestow;
All those who fear His holy Name,
His loving care shall know.

2 For small and great who fear His Name
The Lord has good in store;
Ye and your children, blest of God,
Shall prosper more and more.

3 The great Creator blesses you
With gifts of boundless worth;
The heav'ns He claims, but gives to man
Dominion in the earth.

4 The silent dead praise not the Lord,
The grave no song can raise;
But we will bless Him evermore,
Let all proclaim His praise.
