LyicsNo place there is on earth more sweet
More rich with pure delight, more rich with pure delight,
Than where our Father's children meet
To worship Him aright,
To wor-ship Him aright,
To wor-ship Him aright.
With saints on earth to sing his praise,
Inspires with holy zeal:
With joy the note of song shall raise,
As we his presence feel.
In harmony our voices join
To sing our Saviour's name;
Bright angels too, their powers combine
To celebrate his fame.
Here, from the holy word of God,
"By inspiration given."
We learn the path our Saviour trod-
The way that leads to heaven.
Who can forsake assembling here,
While grace and truth declare,
If we in Jesus' name appear,
His presence shall be there?
If earth afford a joy so dear,
Where partings oft are known,
What heights of glory shall appear
Forever near God's throne!
