HITHERTO AND HENCEFORTH by FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL

First Line: HITHERTO THE LORD HATH HELPED US
Last Line: LIVE TO SHOW HIS PRAISE.
Subject(s): BLESSINGS;
HITHERTO the Lord hath blessed us,
Guiding all the way;
Henceforth let us trust Him fully,
Trust Him all the day.

Hitherto the Lord hath loved us,
Caring for His own;
Henceforth let us love Him better,
Live for Him alone.

Hitherto the Lord hath blessed us,
Crowning all our days;
Henceforth let us live to bless Him,
Live to show His praise.
