Grace After Meat

Being of beings, God of Love, To Thee our hearts we raise; Thy all-sustaining power we prove, And gladly sing Thy praise.

Thine, wholly Thine, we pant to be; Our sacrifice receive; Made, and preserved, and saved by Thee, To Thee ourselves we give.

Heavenward our every wish aspires: For all Thy mercy’s store The sole return Thy love requires Is, that we ask for more.

For more we ask; we open then Our hearts to embrace Thy will: Turn, and beget us, Lord, again, With all Thy fulness fill!

Come, Holy Ghost, the Saviour’s love Shed in our hearts abroad; So shall we ever live, and move, And be, with Christ, in God.
