LyicsLORD! when together here we meet
And taste thy heav'nly grace,
Thy smiles are so divinely sweet
We're loath to leave the place.
Yet, Father, since it is thy will,
that we must part again,
O let thy gracious presence still
With every soul remain.
O may we all in Christ be one,
Bound with the cords of love,
Till we, around thy glorious throne,
Shall joyous meet above.
Where sin and sorrow from each heart
Shall then forever fly,
And not one thought that we shall part,
Once intercept our joy.
There, void of all distracting pains,
Our spirits ne'er shall tire;
But in seraphic, heavenly strains,
Redeeming love admire.
