1. O Thou Holy One, great and merciful!
    Lord of all and Creator!
    Thee we are nearing,
    Blessings desiring,
    Help us, Help us, Jehovah!
 
2. O Thou Holy One, great and merciful!
    We also are Thy children.
    Thy mercy pleading,
    In Thee confiding.
    Help us, Help us, O Father!
 
3. O Thou Holy One, great and merciful!
    Jesus, Saviour of mankind!
    Friend of the children,
    Saviour of sinners.
    Help us, Help us, Lord Jesus!
 
4. O Thou Holy One, great and merciful!
    Spirit of love and wisdom!
    Comfort us ever;
    Show us the Father;
    Reign Thou, Reign Thou, within us!
 
5. O Thou Holy One, great and merciful!
    Comfort and keep us ever!
    Thou, our Consoler,
    Helper and Father,
    Share us, Share us Thy blessings!

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!
Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
