Grace After Meat (Part I) 1 Being of beings, God of love, To thee our hearts we raise; Thy all-sustaining pow'r we prove, And gladly sing thy praise. 2 Thine, wholly thine we pant to be, Our sacrifice receive; Made, and preserv'd, and sav'd by thee, To thee ourselves we give. 5"Then" changed to "all" in 4th edn. (1743) and 5th edn. (1756). 3 Heav'nward our ev'ry wish aspires: For all thy mercy's store The sole return thy love requires, Is that we ask for more. 4 For more we ask, we open then Our hearts t' embrace thy will: Turn and beget us, Lord, again, With all thy fulness fill! 5 Come, Holy Ghost, the Saviour's love Shed in our hearts abroad; So shall we ever live and move, And be, with Christ, in God.
