N thy name, O Lord, assembling, We, thy people, now near: Teach us to rejoice with trembling; Speak, and let thy servants hear: Hear with meekness, Hear thy word with godly fear. 2 While our days on earth are lengthen❜d, May we give them, Lord, to thee: Cheer'd by hope, and daily strengthen'd, May we run, nor weary be; Till thy glory Without cloud in heaven we see. 3 There, in worship purer, sweeter, Full and pure, forever more. 44 1st P. M. 6 lines 8s. Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Sabaoth.

N thy presence we appear; here, When, within the veil, we meet 2 While thy glorious Name is sung, 3 While to thee our prayers ascend, 4 While thy word is heard with awe, 5 While thy ministers proclaim Peace and pardon through thy name, In their voices let us own Jesus, speaking from the throne. 6 From thy house when we return, Let our hearts within us burn; 46 Universal adoration. L. M. HOLY, holy, holy Lord! Thou God of hosts, by all adored : The earth and heavens are full of thee, Thy light, thy power, thy majesty. 2 Loud hallelujahs to thy Name, Angels and seraphim proclaim: By all the powers and thrones in heaven, 3 Apostles join the glorious throng, 47 The sacrifice of praise.

LL thanks to the Lamb, who gives us to meet: His love we proclaim, his praises repeat: We own him our Jesus, continually near, To pardon, and bless us, and perfect us here. 2 In him we have peace, in him we have power, Preserved by his grace throughout the dark hour: In all our temptation he keeps us, to prove His utmost salvation, his fulness of love. 3 Pronounce the glad word, and bid us be free: Ah! hast thou not, Lord, a blessing for me? The peace thou hast given, this moment impart, And open thy heaven, O Love, in my heart. |
