The Hymnal ‎#37

37. With thankful hearts we meet, O Lord

1 With thankful hearts we meet, O Lord,
to sing thy praise, to hear thy word,
To seek thy face in earnest prayer,
To cast on thee each earthly care.

2 Dear Shepherd of thy chosen flock,
Thy people's shield, their shadowing rock,
Once more we meet to her thy voice,
Once more before thee to rejoice.

3 Thy presence, Savior, now we seek,
Confirm the strong, sustain the weak;
Way-worn and tired we hither come;
Give us a foretaste of our home.

Amen.
