Lyics

IF 'tis sweet to mingle where

Christians meet for social pray'r;

If 'tis sweet with them to raise

Songs of holy joy and praise,

Passing sweet that state must be

Where they meet eternally.



Saviour, may these meetings prove

Antepasts to that above;

While we worship in this place,

May we go from grace to grace,

Till we each, in his degree,

Fit for endless glory be.
