Text Based On Luke Chapter 2
And when he was twelve years old,
they went up to Jerusalem after the
custom of the feast.
Dear Savior,
From Thy Throne Above
Dear Savior, from Thy throne above,
Where countless children bow,
Oh, let Thy loving eye behold
And bless Thy children now.
Refrain
Our hearts in tuneful numbers wake,
Our tongues with delight sing,
All glory, honour, praise to Thee,
Redeemer, Lord and King!
Thy mercy led us thro' the year
That sweetly passed away,
And thro' Thy grace we gather now
To hail our blessèd feast .
Refrain
Oh, may we learn in early youth
Thy holy Word to prize,
The lamp that guides our feet to truth,
Our hope beyond the skies.
Refrain
Oh, happy thought, if, faithful here,
We work and watch and pray,
We'll spend with Thee in love at last
An endless happy day.
Refrain
