How pleasing to behold and see

Verse 1

How pleasing to behold and see The friends of Jesus all agree-- To sit around the sacred board As members of one common Lord.

Verse 2

Here we behold the dawn of bliss; Here behold the Savior's grace; Here we behold His precious blood, Which sweetly pleads for us with God.

Verse 3

While here we sit we would implore, That love may spread from shore to shore, Till all the saints, with us, combine To praise the Lord in songs divine.

Verse 4

To all we freely give our hand, Who love the Lord in ev'ry land; For all are one in Christ our head, To whom be endless honors paid.
