| Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers. (1 Thess. 1:1‑2) |
| What thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God? (1 Thess. 3:9) |
Savior, for them that trust in Thee,
Once more, with thanksgiving on high,
We lift the heart and bend the knee,
As our devotion’s incense rise. |
For mercies past we praise Thee, Lord,
The fruits of earth, the joys of heaven,
Thy helping arm, Thy guiding Word,
And answered prayers, and souls
forgiven. |
