Lord, when before Thy throne we meet
Author: Tresilian George Nicholas Appears in 21 hymnals Matching Instances: 21 Lyrics: 1 Lord, when before Thy throne we meet,
Thy goodness to adore,
From heaven, the eternal mercy-seat,
On us Thy blessing pour,
And make our inmost souls to be
A habitation meet for Thee.
2 Thy Body for our ransom given,
Thy Blood in mercy shed,--
With this immortal food from heaven,
Lord, let our souls be fed:
And as we round Thine altar kneel,
Help us Thy quickening grace to feel.
3 Be Thou, O Holy Spirit, nigh;
Accept the humble prayer,
The contrite soul's repentant sigh,
The sinner's heartfelt tear;
And let our adoration rise
As fragrant incense to the skies. Topics: The Means of Grace The Lord's Supper; Passion Week Used With Tune: WESSEX

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Lord, when before Thy throne we meet" in The Spirit of Praise In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
