O God! may they and we be thine.
James Montgomery, 1825.
465 Welton. L.M.
(1011) An Ordination Service.
The solemn service now is done.
The vow is pledged, the toil begun;
Seal thou, O God! the oath above,
And ratify the pledge of love.
2 The shepherd of thy people bless;
Gird him with thine own holiness;
