Hymn 84
8 7 8 7 D
1. Once more we've met to worship,
At the feet of our dear Lord,
Come O Jesus, come and meet us,
While we sing and read thy word.
Let thy spirit blessed Savior
Be shed forth upon us now,
That we all may be united,
When we at thy feet shall bow.

2. We will worship thee our Father,
For the blessings thou hast given
Unto us, thy needy children,
Who are striving after heav'n.
Thou dost fill our hearts with gladness,
When thy will thou dost make known;
And we are relieved from sadness,
When thou dost thy people own.

3. Though thou chast'nest all thy children,
'Tis because thou lovest them;
Let us therefore be more faithful,
And we then shall overcome.
Lord assist us by thy spirit,
To be faithful to the end;
Then when we lay down these bodies,
We shall find in thee a friend.
