God of our fathers, whose almighty hand
Leads forth in beauty all the starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies
Our grateful songs before Thy throne arise
Refresh Thy people on their toilsome way
Lead us from night to never-ending day
Fill all our lives with love and grace divine
And glory, laud, and praise be ever Thine
And glory, laud, and praise be ever Thine!
