In Thy Name, O Lord, Assembling

Thomas Kelly (1815) • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:10

Verse 1

In Thy name, O Lord, assembling, We, Thy people, now draw near; Teach us to rejoice with trembling; Speak, and let Thy servants hear, Hear with meekness, Hear Thy word with godly fear.

Verse 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 cloud in heaven we see.

Verse 3

Then, in worship purer, sweeter, All Thy people shall adore, Sharing then in rapture greater Than they could conceive before, Full enjoyment, Full and pure, forevermore. Amen.
