Lyics

Here in the presence of our God,
We've met to seek his face;
O let us feel th' eternal word,
And feast upon thy grace.


O may this be a happy hour
To ev'ry mourning soul;
Display thy love, make known thy pow'r
And make the wounded whole


O may a spark of heav'nly fire,
Each stupid soul inflame;
And sacred love, our tongues inspire,
To praise thy worthy name.


Let ev'ry soul, the Saviour see,
And taste his heav'nly love;
And ev'ry heart forever be
In praise to thee above.
