HYMN 232

PB 62 CMS 98 (FE 252) 
“Then shall the Lord be my God" 
- Gen. 28:21



1.  O GOD of Bethel, by whose hand 

     Thy people still are fed,

     Who through this weary pilgrimage 

     Ha stall our fathers led.


2.  Our vows, our prayer, we now present

     Before thy throne of grace;

     God of our fathers, be the God
  
     Of their succeed in grace.


3.  Through each perplexing path of life 

     Our wandering footsteps guide: 

     Give us each day our daily bread,

     And raiment fit provide.


4.  O spread thy covering wings around, 

     Till all our wandering cease

     And at our father‘s loved abode

     Our souls arrive in peace.


5.  Such blessings from thy gracious hand 

     Our humble prayers implore

     And thou shalt be our chosen God 

     And portionevermore.  Amen
