Hymnal and Order of Service ‎#153

153. In Thy Name, O Lord, Assembling

1 In Thy Name, O Lord, assembling,
We, Thy people, now draw near;
Teach us to rejoice with trembling,
Speak, and let Thy servants hear;
Hear with meekness,
Hear with meekness,
Hear Thy Word with godly fear.

2 While our days on earth are lengthened,
May we give them, Lord, to Thee;
Cheered by hope, and daily strengthened,
May we run, nor weary be,
Till Thy glory
Till Thy glory
Without clouds in heaven we see.

3 There in worship purer, sweeter,
All Thy people shall adore;
Tasting of enjoyment greater
Than they could conceive before;
Full enjoyment,
Full enjoyment,
Full and pure for evermore.

Amen.
