LyicsAgain our earthly cares we leave,
And to thy courts repair;
Again with joyful feet we come
To meet our Savior here.
Within these walls let holy peace,
And love and concord dwell;
Here give the troubled conscience ease,
The wounded spirit heal.
The feeling heart, the melting eye,
The humble mind, bestow;
And shine upon us from on high,
To make our graces grow.
May we in faith receive thy word,
In faith present our prayers
And in the presence of our Lord
Unbosom all our cares.
Show us some token of thy love,
Our fainting hope to raise,
And pour thy blessings from above,
That we may render praise.
