124. Holy Father, In Thy Keeping

1 Holy Father, in Thy mercy
Hear our fervent prayer,
Keep our loved ones, now far absent,
‘Neath Thy care.

2 Jesus, Saviour, let Thy presence
Be their light and guide;
Keep, oh, keep them, in their weakness,
At Thy side.

3 May the joy of Thy salvation
Be their strength and stay;
May they love and may they praise Thee
Day by day.

4 Holy Spirit, let Thy teaching
Sanctify their life;
Send Thy grace, that they may conquer
In the strife.

5 Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
God, the One in Three,
Bless them guide them, save them, keep them
Near to Thee.
