Lyics

Lord, bless thy saints assembled here,

In solemn cov'nant now to join;

Unite them in thy holy fear,

And in thy love their hearts combine.



O give this church a large increase

Of such as thou wilt own and bless;

Lord, fill their hearts with joy and peace,

And clothe them with thy righteousness.



Make her a garden wall'd with grace,

A temple built for god below,

Where thy blest saints may see thy face;

And fruits of thy bless'd Spirit grow.
