Lyics

Lord, how delightful  tis to see 

A whole assembly worship thee;

At once they sing, at once they pray,

They hear of heaven, and learn the way.



I have been there, and still would go,

 Tis like a little heaven below;

Nor all that earth and sin can say,

Shall tempt me to forget this day.



O write upon my memory, Lord,

The text and doctrine of thy word,

That I may break thy laws no more,

But love thee better than before.



With thoughts of Christ, and things divine,

Fill up this sinful heart of mine;

Enjoying pardon through his blood,

I shall lie down and wake with God.
