563. Jesus, We Love to Meet

1 Jesus, we love to meet
on this, your holy day;
we worship round your seat
on this, your holy day.
O tender heav'nly friend,
to you our prayers ascend;
over our spirits bend
on this, your holy day.

2 We dare not trifle now
on this, your holy day;
in silent awe we bow
on this, your holy day.
Check ev'ry wand'ring thought,
and let us all be taught
to serve you as we ought
on this, your holy day.

3 We listen to your word
on this, your holy day;
bless all that we have heard
on this, your holy day.
Go with us when we part,
and to each longing heart
your saving grace impart
on this, your holy day.
