1Kind Lord, before thy face

Again with joy we bow,

For all the gifts and grace

Thou dost on us bestow.

Our tongues would all thy love proclaim,

And chant the honors of thy name.

2Here, in thine earthly house,

Our joyful souls have met;

Here paid our solemn vows,

And felt our union sweet.

For this our tongues thy love proclaim,

And chant the honors of thy name.

3Now may we dwell in peace

Till here again we come;

And may our love increase

Till thou shalt bring us home.

Then shall our tongues thy love proclaim,

And chant the honors of thy name.
