And 'mid the light of that blest place Shall gaze upon Thee face to face. 4 Glory to God, the Father, Son, And Holy Spirit, Three in One! To Thee, O Holy Trinity, Be praise throughout eternity!

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #3 (1918) Meter: 7.8 Lyrics: 1 Blessed Jesus, at Thy Word We are gathered all to hear Thee; Let our hearts and souls be stirred Now to seek and love and fear Thee; By Thy teachings sweet and holy Drawn from earth to love Thee solely. 2 All our knowledge, sense, and sight Lie in deepest darkness shrouded, Till Thy Spirit breaks our night With the beams of truth unclouded; Thou alone to God canst win us, Thou must work all good within us. 3 Glorious Lord, Thyself impart! Light of Light, from God proceeding, Open Thou our ears and heart, Help us by Thy Spirit’s pleading, Hear the cry Thy people raises, Hear and bless our prayers and praises. 4 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Praise to Thee and adoration! Grant that we Thy Word may trust, And obtain true consolation, While we here below must wander, Till we sing Thy praises yonder. Topics: The Beginning of Worship Languages: English

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #5 (1918) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Open now Thy gates of beauty, Zion, let me enter there, Where my soul in joyful duty, Waits for Him who answers pray'r; Oh, how blessed is this place, Filled with solace, light, and grace. 2 Yes, my God, I come before Thee, Come Thou also down to me; Where we find Thee and adore Thee, There a heaven on earth must be. To my heart, oh, enter Thou, Let it be Thy temple now. 3 Here Thy praise is gladly chanted, Here Thy seed is duly sown; Let my soul, where it is planted, Bring forth precious sheaves alone, So that all I hear may be Fruitful unto life in me. 4 Thou my faith increase and quicken, Let me keep Thy Gift divine, Howsoe'er temptations thicken; May Thy Word still o'er me shine, As my pole-star through my life, As my comfort in my strife. 5 Speak, O God, and I will hear Thee, Let Thy will be done indeed; May I undisturbed draw near Thee Whilst Thou dost Thy people feed. Here of life the fountain flows, Here is balm for all our woes. Topics: The Beginning of Worship Languages: English

Lord, when we bend before Thy throne

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #6 (1918) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, when we bend before Thy throne, And our confessions pour, Teach us to feel the sins we own And hate what we deplore. 2 Our broken spirit pitying see; True penitence impart; Then let a kindling glance from Thee Beam hope upon the heart. 3 When our responsive tongues essay Their grateful hymns to raise, Grant that our souls may join the lay And mount to Thee in praise. 4 When we disclose our wants in prayer, May we our wills resign; And not a thought our bosom share Which is not wholly Thine. 5 May faith each meek petition fill And waft it to the skies, And teach our hearts 'tis goodness still That grants it or denies.
