- 1Blessed Jesus, at Thy word
- We are gathered all to hear Thee;
- Let our hearts and souls be stirred
- Now to seek and love and fear Thee,
- By Thy teachings, sweet and holy,
- Drawn from earth to love Thee solely.
- 2All our knowledge, sense, and sight
- Lie in deepest darkness shrouded
- Till Thy Spirit breaks our night
- With the beams of truth unclouded.
- Thou alone to God canst win us,
- Thou must work all good within us.
- 3Glorious Lord, Thyself impart,
- Light of light, from God proceeding,
- Open Thou our ears and heart,
- Help us by Thy Spirit’s pleading;
- Hear the cry Thy people raises,
- Hear and bless our prayers and praises.
