Author: George Burder Hymnal: Laudes Domini #44 (1890) First Line: Sweet the time, exceeding sweet! Lyrics: 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.
5 Sweet the place, exceeding sweet,
Where the saints in glory meet;
Where the Saviour's still the theme,
Where they see and sing of him. Topics: Prayer and Invocation; Close of Worship; Opening of Service; Prayer; Close of Worship; Opening of Service; Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: INNOCENTS
