Invocation

Lyrics by Mary Baker Eddy
Music by Ann Stephan

Father of every age,

Of every rolling sphere,

Help us to write a deathless page

Of truth, this dawning year!

Help us to humbly bow

To Thy all-wise behest–

Whate’er the gift of joy or woe,

Knowing Thou knowest best.

Aid our poor soul to sing

Above the tempest’s glee;

Give us the eagle’s fearless wing,

The dove’s to soar to Thee!

All-merciful and good,

Hover the homeless heart!

Give us this day our daily food

In knowing what Thou art!
