132. Hearts Full of Gladnes

1 Hearts full of gladness, once more we gather
Here in our cheerful Sabbath dwelling;
Anthems of rapture while we are swelling,
Praise we offer Thee, Lord, our King.

Refrain:
He crowneth us with blessings rare
How great His loving kindness!
While mercy, like an angel fair,
Leaves not a shadow of sadness;
Hearts full of gladness, praise our Redeemer,
In our beautiful home today.

2 Hearts full of gladness, once more we gather
Where our Redeemer oft has told us,
Under His watch care He will enfold us,
They that follow Him safe shall be. [Refrain]

3 Hearts full of gladness, O may we ever
Follow the foot-prints now before us;
Then will our Saviour, now watching o’er us,
Kindly welcome us home to Him. [Refrain]
