Text: | Sweet the time |

Tune: | [Sweet the time, exceeding sweet!] |
Composer: | W. H. Monk |
1 Sweet the time, exceeding sweet!
When the saints together meet,
When the Saviour is the theme,
When they joy to sing of him.
2 Sing we then eternal love,
Such as did the Father move;
He beheld the world undone,
Loved the world, and gave his Son.
3 Sing the Son's amazing love;
How he left the realms above,
Took our nature and our place,
Lived and died to save our race.
4 Sing we, too, the Spirit's love;
With our stubborn hearts he strove,
Filled our minds with grief and fear,
Brought the precious Saviour near.
