Will Guide Us Till We Die (Aylesbury) 28t

Tune: A Book of Psalmody, 1718
Lyrics: Isaac Watts, 1719
Meter: Short Meter (6,6,8,6)
The God we worship now
Will guide us ’till we die
Will be our God while here below,
And ours above the sky.

How decent and how wise!
How glorious to behold.
Beyond the pomp that charms the eye
And rites adorned with gold.

Far as thy name is known
The world declares thy praise;
Thy saints, O Lord, before thy throne
Their songs of honor raise.
