65. Once Again, Before Thy Throne

1 Once again, before Thy throne,
Lord, we meet Thy name to praise,
For Thy grace and mercy shown,
For the joy that crowns our days.

Chorus:
Thou, on Whom we cast our care,
Deign to bless this hour of pray’r;
Give us faith, that we may be
One in heart, and one in Thee.

2 Thro' the cross where Thou hast died,
Lift our souls this world above;
May we still for refuge hide,
In Thy all-redeeming love. [Chorus]

3 Then, at last, when time shall cease,
When on earth no more we roam,--
At the gate of rest and peace,
May we hear Thy “Welcome home.” [Chorus]
