                      THE HANDBOOK TO THE LUTHERAN HYMNAL

	1. O Savior, precious Savior,
	Whom, yet unseen, we love;
	O Name of might and favor,
	All other names above.
	We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
	To Thee, O Christ, we sing;
	We praise Thee and confess Thee,
	Our holy Lord and King.
	
	2. O Bringer of salvation,
	Who wondrously has wrought
	Thyself the revelation
	Of love beyond our thought,
	We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
	To Thee, O Christ, we sing;
	We praise Thee and confess Thee,
	Our holy Lord and King.
	
	3. In Thee all fulness dwelleth,
	All grace and power divine;
	The glory that excelleth,
	O Son of God, is Thine.
	We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
	To Thee, O Christ, we sing;
	We praise Thee and confess Thee,
	Our holy Lord and King.
	
	4. Oh, grant the consummation
	Of this our song above
	In endless adoration
	And everlasting love!
	We worship Thee, we bless Thee,
	To Thee, O Christ, we sing;
	We praise Thee and confess Thee,
	Our holy Lord and King.
