HOPKINS, 1868 b4 In Thy name, O Lord, as - sem-bling, We, Thy people, now draw near: to re - joice with trem-bling; Speak,and let Thy ser-vants hear, 2 While our days on earth are lengthened, May we give them, Lord, to Thee; Cheered by hope, and daily strengthened, May we run, nor weary be, Till Thy glory Without clouds in heaven we see. 3 There in worship purer, sweeter, Tasting of enjoyment greater Full, unmixed, and evermore. Rev. THOMAS KELLY, 1815 Fix in us Thy hum- ble dwell-ing, All Thy faith-ful mer - cies crown: Jesus,Thou art all com-pas- sion, Pure,un-bound-ed love Thou art: b Visit us with Thy sal - va- tion, En-ter ev'ry trembling heart. A-men. 2 Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit Into every troubled breast: Let us all in Thee inherit, Let us find Thy promised rest: Alpha and Omega be, 3 Come, Almighty to deliver, Never more Thy temples leave. Serve Thee as Thy hosts above, |
