| Text: | Jesus, Where'er Thy People Meet |
| Author: | William Cowper |
| Tune: | MALVERN |
| Composer: | Lowell Mason |
1 Jesus, where'er Thy people meet,
There they behold Thy mercy-seat;
Where'er they seek Thee, Thou art found,
And every place is hallowed ground.
2 For Thou, within no walls confined,
Dost dwell with those of humble mind;
Such ever bring Thee where they come,
And going, take Thee to their home.
3 Good Shepherd of Thy chosen few,
Thy former mercies here renew;
Here to our waiting hearts proclaim
The sweetness of Thy saving name.
4 Here may we prove the power of prayer
To strengthen faith and sweeten care,
To teach our faint desires to rise,
And bring all heaven before our eyes.
Amen.
