Jesus, We Look to Thee

Verse 1

Jesus, we look to Thee, Thy promised presence claim; Thou in the midst of us shalt be, Assembled in Thy Name.

Verse 2

Thy Name salvation is, Which here we come to prove; Thy Name is life, and health, and peace, And everlasting love.

Verse 3

Not in the name of pride Or selfishness we meet; From nature's paths we turn aside, And worldly thoughts forget.

Verse 4

We meet, the grace to take Which Thou hast freely given; We meet on earth for Thy dear sake That we may meet in heaven.

Verse 5

Present we know Thou art; But, O, Thyself reveal! Now Lord, let every bounding heart Thy mighty comfort feel.

Verse 6

O may Thy quickening voice The death of sin remove; And bid our inmost souls rejoice In hope of perfect love. Amen.
