Text: | Jesus intercedes |
Author: | James Montgomery |
Tune: | CHAPEL |
1 To thy temple we repair--
Lord, we love to worship there,
When within the vail we meet
Thee upon the mercy-seat.
2 While thy glorious name is sung,
Tune our lips--unloose our tongue;
Then our joyful souls shall bless
Thee, the Lord our Righteousness.
3 While to thee our prayers ascend,
Let thine ear in love attend;
Hear us, for thy Spirit pleads--
Hear, for Jesus intercedes.
4 While thy word is heard with awe,
While we tremble at thy law,
Let thy gospel's wondrous love
Every doubt and fear remove.
5 From thy house when we return,
Let our hearts within us burn;
That at evening we may say--
"We have walked with God to-day."
